This will be similar to /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap documented in Documentation/admin-guide/mm/idle_page_tracking.rst, however indexed by process virtual address. When using the global PFN indexed idle bitmap, we find 2 kind of overheads: - to track a task's working set, Brendan Gregg end up writing wss-v1 for small tasks and wss-v2 for large tasks: https://github.com/brendangregg/wss That's because VAs may point to random PAs throughout the physical address space. So we either query /proc/pid/pagemap first and access the lots of random PFNs (with lots of syscalls) in the bitmap, or write+read the whole system idle bitmap beforehand. - page table walking by PFN has much more overheads than to walk a page table in its natural order: - rmap queries - more locking - random memory reads/writes This interface provides a cheap path for the majority non-shared mapping pages. To walk 1TB memory of 4k active pages, it costs 2s vs 15s system time to scan the per-task/global idle bitmaps. Which means ~7x speedup. The gap will be enlarged if consider - the extra /proc/pid/pagemap walk - natural page table walks can skip the whole 512 PTEs if PMD is idle OTOH, the per-task idle bitmap is not suitable in some situations: - not accurate for shared pages - don't work with non-mapped file pages - don't perform well for sparse page tables (pointed out by Huang Ying) So it's more about complementing the existing global idle bitmap.
