From 5b7c4cabbb65f5c469464da6c5f614cbd7f730f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Tue, 21 Feb 2023 18:24:12 -0800 Subject: Merge tag 'net-next-6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core: - Add dedicated kmem_cache for typical/small skb->head, avoid having to access struct page at kfree time, and improve memory use. - Introduce sysctl to set default RPS configuration for new netdevs. - Define Netlink protocol specification format which can be used to describe messages used by each family and auto-generate parsers. Add tools for generating kernel data structures and uAPI headers. - Expose all net/core sysctls inside netns. - Remove 4s sleep in netpoll if carrier is instantly detected on boot. - Add configurable limit of MDB entries per port, and port-vlan. - Continue populating drop reasons throughout the stack. - Retire a handful of legacy Qdiscs and classifiers. Protocols: - Support IPv4 big TCP (TSO frames larger than 64kB). - Add IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE socket option, to control local port range on socket by socket basis. - Track and report in procfs number of MPTCP sockets used. - Support mixing IPv4 and IPv6 flows in the in-kernel MPTCP path manager. - IPv6: don't check net.ipv6.route.max_size and rely on garbage collection to free memory (similarly to IPv4). - Support Penultimate Segment Pop (PSP) flavor in SRv6 (RFC8986). - ICMP: add per-rate limit counters. - Add support for user scanning requests in ieee802154. - Remove static WEP support. - Support minimal Wi-Fi 7 Extremely High Throughput (EHT) rate reporting. - WiFi 7 EHT channel puncturing support (client & AP). BPF: - Add a rbtree data structure following the "next-gen data structure" precedent set by recently added linked list, that is, by using kfunc + kptr instead of adding a new BPF map type. - Expose XDP hints via kfuncs with initial support for RX hash and timestamp metadata. - Add BPF_F_NO_TUNNEL_KEY extension to bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key to better support decap on GRE tunnel devices not operating in collect metadata. - Improve x86 JIT's codegen for PROBE_MEM runtime error checks. - Remove the need for trace_printk_lock for bpf_trace_printk and bpf_trace_vprintk helpers. - Extend libbpf's bpf_tracing.h support for tracing arguments of kprobes/uprobes and syscall as a special case. - Significantly reduce the search time for module symbols by livepatch and BPF. - Enable cpumasks to be used as kptrs, which is useful for tracing programs tracking which tasks end up running on which CPUs in different time intervals. - Add support for BPF trampoline on s390x and riscv64. - Add capability to export the XDP features supported by the NIC. - Add __bpf_kfunc tag for marking kernel functions as kfuncs. - Add cgroup.memory=nobpf kernel parameter option to disable BPF memory accounting for container environments. Netfilter: - Remove the CLUSTERIP target. It has been marked as obsolete for years, and we still have WARN splats wrt races of the out-of-band /proc interface installed by this target. - Add 'destroy' commands to nf_tables. They are identical to the existing 'delete' commands, but do not return an error if the referenced object (set, chain, rule...) did not exist. Driver API: - Improve cpumask_local_spread() locality to help NICs set the right IRQ affinity on AMD platforms. - Separate C22 and C45 MDIO bus transactions more clearly. - Introduce new DCB table to control DSCP rewrite on egress. - Support configuration of Physical Layer Collision Avoidance (PLCA) Reconciliation Sublayer (RS) (802.3cg-2019). Modern version of shared medium Ethernet. - Support for MAC Merge layer (IEEE 802.3-2018 clause 99). Allowing preemption of low priority frames by high priority frames. - Add support for controlling MACSec offload using netlink SET. - Rework devlink instance refcounts to allow registration and de-registration under the instance lock. Split the code into multiple files, drop some of the unnecessarily granular locks and factor out common parts of netlink operation handling. - Add TX frame aggregation parameters (for USB drivers). - Add a new attr TCA_EXT_WARN_MSG to report TC (offload) warning messages with notifications for debug. - Allow offloading of UDP NEW connections via act_ct. - Add support for per action HW stats in TC. - Support hardware miss to TC action (continue processing in SW from a specific point in the action chain). - Warn if old Wireless Extension user space interface is used with modern cfg80211/mac80211 drivers. Do not support Wireless Extensions for Wi-Fi 7 devices at all. Everyone should switch to using nl80211 interface instead. - Improve the CAN bit timing configuration. Use extack to return error messages directly to user space, update the SJW handling, including the definition of a new default value that will benefit CAN-FD controllers, by increasing their oscillator tolerance.

This file lets a userspace process find out which + physical frame each virtual page is mapped to. It contains one 64-bit + value for each virtual page, containing the following data (from + ``fs/proc/task_mmu.c``, above pagemap_read): + + * Bits 0-54 page frame number (PFN) if present + * Bits 0-4 swap type if swapped + * Bits 5-54 swap offset if swapped + * Bit 55 pte is soft-dirty (see + :ref:`Documentation/admin-guide/mm/soft-dirty.rst `) + * Bit 56 page exclusively mapped (since 4.2) + * Bit 57 pte is uffd-wp write-protected (since 5.13) (see + :ref:`Documentation/admin-guide/mm/userfaultfd.rst `) + * Bits 58-60 zero + * Bit 61 page is file-page or shared-anon (since 3.5) + * Bit 62 page swapped + * Bit 63 page present + + Since Linux 4.0 only users with the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability can get PFNs. + In 4.0 and 4.1 opens by unprivileged fail with -EPERM. Starting from + 4.2 the PFN field is zeroed if the user does not have CAP_SYS_ADMIN. + Reason: information about PFNs helps in exploiting Rowhammer vulnerability. + + If the page is not present but in swap, then the PFN contains an + encoding of the swap file number and the page's offset into the + swap. Unmapped pages return a null PFN. This allows determining + precisely which pages are mapped (or in swap) and comparing mapped + pages between processes. + + Efficient users of this interface will use ``/proc/pid/maps`` to + determine which areas of memory are actually mapped and llseek to + skip over unmapped regions. + + * ``/proc/kpagecount``. This file contains a 64-bit count of the number of + times each page is mapped, indexed by PFN. + +The page-types tool in the tools/vm directory can be used to query the +number of times a page is mapped. + + * ``/proc/kpageflags``. This file contains a 64-bit set of flags for each + page, indexed by PFN. + + The flags are (from ``fs/proc/page.c``, above kpageflags_read): + + 0. LOCKED + 1. ERROR + 2. REFERENCED + 3.

This file contains a 64-bit inode number of the + memory cgroup each page is charged to, indexed by PFN. Only available when + CONFIG_MEMCG is set. + +Short descriptions to the page flags +==================================== + +0 - LOCKED + The page is being locked for exclusive access, e.g. by undergoing read/write + IO. +7 - SLAB + The page is managed by the SLAB/SLOB/SLUB/SLQB kernel memory allocator. + When compound page is used, SLUB/SLQB will only set this flag on the head + page; SLOB will not flag it at all. +10 - BUDDY + A free memory block managed by the buddy system allocator. + The buddy system organizes free memory in blocks of various orders. + An order N block has 2^N physically contiguous pages, with the BUDDY flag + set for and _only_ for the first page. +15 - COMPOUND_HEAD + A compound page with order N consists of 2^N physically contiguous pages. + A compound page with order 2 takes the form of "HTTT", where H donates its + head page and T donates its tail page(s). The major consumers of compound + pages are hugeTLB pages + (:ref:`Documentation/admin-guide/mm/hugetlbpage.rst `), + the SLUB etc. memory allocators and various device drivers. + However in this interface, only huge/giga pages are made visible + to end users. +16 - COMPOUND_TAIL + A compound page tail (see description above). +17 - HUGE + This is an integral part of a HugeTLB page. +19 - HWPOISON + Hardware detected memory corruption on this page: don't touch the data! +20 - NOPAGE + No page frame exists at the requested address. +21 - KSM + Identical memory pages dynamically shared between one or more processes. +22 - THP + Contiguous pages which construct transparent hugepages. +23 - OFFLINE + The page is logically offline. +24 - ZERO_PAGE + Zero page for pfn_zero or huge_zero page. +25 - IDLE + The page has not been accessed since it was marked idle (see + :ref:`Documentation/admin-guide/mm/idle_page_tracking.rst `). + Note that this flag may be stale in case the page was accessed via + a PTE. To make sure the flag is up-to-date one has to read + ``/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap`` first. +26 - PGTABLE + The page is in use as a page table. + +IO related page flags +--------------------- + +1 - ERROR + IO error occurred. +3 - UPTODATE + The page has up-to-date data. + ie. for file backed page: (in-memory data revision >= on-disk one) +4 - DIRTY + The page has been written to, hence contains new data. + i.e. for file backed page: (in-memory data revision > on-disk one) +8 - WRITEBACK + The page is being synced to disk. + +LRU related page flags +---------------------- + +5 - LRU + The page is in one of the LRU lists. +6 - ACTIVE + The page is in the active LRU list. +18 - UNEVICTABLE + The page is in the unevictable (non-)LRU list It is somehow pinned and + not a candidate for LRU page reclaims, e.g. ramfs pages, + shmctl(SHM_LOCK) and mlock() memory segments. +2 - REFERENCED + The page has been referenced since last LRU list enqueue/requeue. +9 - RECLAIM + The page will be reclaimed soon after its pageout IO completed. +11 - MMAP + A memory mapped page. +12 - ANON + A memory mapped page that is not part of a file. +13 - SWAPCACHE + The page is mapped to swap space, i.e. has an associated swap entry. +14 - SWAPBACKED + The page is backed by swap/RAM. + +The page-types tool in the tools/vm directory can be used to query the +above flags. + +Using pagemap to do something useful +==================================== + +The general procedure for using pagemap to find out about a process' memory +usage goes like this: + + 1. Read ``/proc/pid/maps`` to determine which parts of the memory space are + mapped to what. + 2. Select the maps you are interested in -- all of them, or a particular + library, or the stack or the heap, etc. + 3. Open ``/proc/pid/pagemap`` and seek to the pages you would like to examine. + 4. Read a u64 for each page from pagemap. + 5. Open ``/proc/kpagecount`` and/or ``/proc/kpageflags``. For each PFN you + just read, seek to that entry in the file, and read the data you want. + +For example, to find the "unique set size" (USS), which is the amount of +memory that a process is using that is not shared with any other process, +you can go through every map in the process, find the PFNs, look those up +in kpagecount, and tally up the number of pages that are only referenced +once. + +Exceptions for Shared Memory +============================ + +Page table entries for shared pages are cleared when the pages are zapped or +swapped out. This makes swapped out pages indistinguishable from never-allocated +ones. + +In kernel space, the swap location can still be retrieved from the page cache. +However, values stored only on the normal PTE get lost irretrievably when the +page is swapped out (i.e. SOFT_DIRTY). + +In user space, whether the page is present, swapped or none can be deduced with +the help of lseek and/or mincore system calls. + +lseek() can differentiate between accessed pages (present or swapped out) and +holes (none/non-allocated) by specifying the SEEK_DATA flag on the file where +the pages are backed. For anonymous shared pages, the file can be found in +``/proc/pid/map_files/``. + +mincore() can differentiate between pages in memory (present, including swap +cache) and out of memory (swapped out or none/non-allocated). + +Other notes +=========== + +Reading from any of the files will return -EINVAL if you are not starting +the read on an 8-byte boundary (e.g., if you sought an odd number of bytes +into the file), or if the size of the read is not a multiple of 8 bytes. + +Before Linux 3.11 pagemap bits 55-60 were used for "page-shift" (which is +always 12 at most architectures). Since Linux 3.11 their meaning changes +after first clear of soft-dirty bits. Since Linux 4.2 they are used for +flags unconditionally. -- cgit v1.2.3
