[PATCH 2/5] mm: Implement process_memwatch syscall

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This syscall can be used to watch the process's memory and perform
atomic operations which aren't possible through procfs. Two operations
have been implemented. MEMWATCH_SD_GET is used to get the soft dirty
pages. MEMWATCH_SD_CLEAR clears the soft dirty bit from dirty pages.
MEMWATCH_SD_IGNORE_VMA can be specified to ignore VMA dirty flags.
These operations can be used collectively in one operation as well.

NAME
       process_memwatch - get process's memory information

SYNOPSIS
       #include <linux/memwatch.h>   /* Definition of MEMWATCH_*
constants */

       long process_memwatch(int pidfd, unsigned long start, int len,
                             unsigned int flags, void *vec,
                             int vec_len);

       Note:  Glibc does not provide a wrapper for this system call;
       call it using syscall(2).

DESCRIPTION
       process_memwatch() system call is  used  to  get  information
       about the memory of the process.

   Arguments
       pidfd specifies the pidfd of process whose memory needs to be
       watched. The calling process must have PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_FS‐
       CREDS  capabilities  over  the  process  whose pidfd has been
       specified.  It can be zero which means that the process wants
       to  watch  its  own  memory.  The  operation is determined by
       flags.  The start argument must be a multiple of  the  system
       page  size.  The  len  argument need not be a multiple of the
       page size, but since the  information  is  returned  for  the
       whole pages, len is effectively rounded up to the next multi‐
       ple of the page size.

       vec is an output array in which the offsets of the pages  are
       returned.  Offset is calculated from start address. User lets
       the kernel know about the size of the vec by passing size  in
       vec_len.   The  system  call returns when the whole range has
       been searched or vec is completely filled.  The  whole  range
       isn't cleared if vec fills up completely.

   Operations
       The  flags  argument specifies the operation to be performed.
       The MEMWATCH_SD_GET and MEMWATCH_SD_CLEAR operations  can  be
       used  separately  or  together to perform MEMWATCH_SD_GET and
       MEMWATCH_SD_CLEAR atomically as one operation.

       MEMWATCH_SD_GET
              Get the page offsets which are soft dirty.

       MEMWATCH_SD_CLEAR
              Clear the pages which are soft dirty.

       MEMWATCH_SD_NO_REUSED_REGIONS
              This optional flag can  be  specified  in  combination
              with other flags. VM_SOFTDIRTY is ignored for the VMAs
              for performance reasons. This flag  shows  only  those
              pages  dirty  which  have been written by the user ex‐
              plicitly. All new allocations are not be  returned  as
              dirty.

RETURN VALUE
       The  0  or  positive  value  is returned on success. Positive
       value when returned shows the number of dirty pages filled in
       vec.    In   the   event  of  an  error  (and  assuming  that
       process_memwatch() was invoked via  syscall(2)),  all  opera‐
       tions return -1 and set errno to indicate the error.

ERRORS
       EINVAL invalid arguments.

       ESRCH  Cannot access the process.

       EIO    I/O error.

This is based on a patch from Gabriel Krisman Bertazi.
