[PATCH RFC] mm: rework virtual memory accounting

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov
Date: Mon Dec 14 2015 - 03:12:48 EST


Here several rated changes bundled together:
* keep vma counting if CONFIG_PROC_FS=n, will be used for limits
* replace mm->shared_vm with better defined mm->data_vm
* account anonymous executable areas as executable
* account file-backed growsdown/up areas as stack
* drop struct file* argument from vm_stat_account
* enforce RLIMIT_DATA for size of data areas

This way code looks cleaner: now code/stack/data
classification depends only on vm_flags state:

VM_EXEC & ~VM_WRITE -> code (VmExe + VmLib in proc)
VM_GROWSUP | VM_GROWSDOWN -> stack (VmStk)
VM_WRITE & ~VM_SHARED & !stack -> data (VmData)

The rest (VmSize - VmData - VmStk - VmExe - VmLib) could be called "shared",
but that might be strange beasts like readonly-private or VM_IO areas.

RLIMIT_AS limits whole address space "VmSize"
RLIMIT_STACK limits stack "VmStk" (but each vma individually)
RLIMIT_DATA now limits "VmData"
