[PATCH v1 1/4] smaps: Fix the abnormal memory statistics obtained through /proc/pid/smaps

From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Thu Jul 27 2023 - 17:29:49 EST


From: liubo <liubo254@xxxxxxxxxx>

In commit 474098edac26 ("mm/gup: replace FOLL_NUMA by
gup_can_follow_protnone()"), FOLL_NUMA was removed and replaced by
the gup_can_follow_protnone interface.

However, for the case where the user-mode process uses transparent
huge pages, when analyzing the memory usage through
/proc/pid/smaps_rollup, the obtained memory usage is not consistent
with the RSS in /proc/pid/status.

Related examples are as follows:
cat /proc/15427/status
VmRSS: 20973024 kB
RssAnon: 20971616 kB
RssFile: 1408 kB
RssShmem: 0 kB

cat /proc/15427/smaps_rollup
00400000-7ffcc372d000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0 [rollup]
Rss: 14419432 kB
Pss: 14418079 kB
Pss_Dirty: 14418016 kB
Pss_Anon: 14418016 kB
Pss_File: 63 kB
Pss_Shmem: 0 kB
Anonymous: 14418016 kB
LazyFree: 0 kB
AnonHugePages: 14417920 kB

The root cause is that the traversal In the page table, the number of
pages obtained by smaps_pmd_entry does not include the pages
corresponding to PROTNONE,resulting in a different situation.

Therefore, when obtaining pages through the follow_trans_huge_pmd
interface, add the FOLL_FORCE flag to count the pages corresponding to
PROTNONE to solve the above problem.
