* tools/mm: add thpmaps script to dump THP usage infoRyan Roberts2024-02-222-4/+680
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the proliferation of large folios for file-backed memory, and more recently the introduction of multi-size THP for anonymous memory, it is becoming useful to be able to see exactly how large folios are mapped into processes. For some architectures (e.g. arm64), if most memory is mapped using contpte-sized and -aligned blocks, TLB usage can be optimized so it's useful to see where these requirements are and are not being met. thpmaps is a Python utility that reads /proc/<pid>/smaps, /proc/<pid>/pagemap and /proc/kpageflags to print information about how transparent huge pages (both file and anon) are mapped to a specified process or cgroup. It aims to help users debug and optimize their workloads. In future we may wish to introduce stats directly into the kernel (e.g. smaps or similar), but for now this provides a short term solution without the need to introduce any new ABI. Run with help option for a full listing of the arguments: # ./thpmaps --help --8<-- usage: thpmaps [-h] [--pid pid | --cgroup path] [--rollup] [--cont size[KMG]] [--inc-smaps] [--inc-empty] [--periodic sleep_ms] Prints information about how transparent huge pages are mapped, either system-wide, or for a specified process or cgroup. When run with --pid, the user explicitly specifies the set of pids to scan. e.g. "--pid 10 [--pid 134 ...]". When run with --cgroup, the user passes either a v1 or v2 cgroup and all pids that belong to the cgroup subtree are scanned. When run with neither --pid nor --cgroup, the full set of pids on the system is gathered from /proc and scanned as if the user had provided "--pid 1 --pid 2 ...". A default set of statistics is always generated for THP mappings. However, it is also possible to generate additional statistics for "contiguous block mappings" where the block size is user-defined. Statistics are maintained independently for anonymous and file-backed (pagecache) memory and are shown both in kB and as a percentage of either total anonymous or total file-backed memory as appropriate. THP Statistics -------------- Statistics are always generated for fully- and contiguously-mapped THPs whose mapping address is aligned to their size, for each <size> supported by the system. Separate counters describe THPs mapped by PTE vs those mapped by PMD. (Although note a THP can only be mapped by PMD if it is PMD-sized): - anon-thp-pte-aligned-<size>kB - file-thp-pte-aligned-<size>kB - anon-thp-pmd-aligned-<size>kB - file-thp-pmd-aligned-<size>kB Similarly, statistics are always generated for fully- and contiguously- mapped THPs whose mapping address is *not* aligned to their size, for each <size> supported by the system. Due to the unaligned mapping, it is impossible to map by PMD, so there are only PTE counters for this case: - anon-thp-pte-unaligned-<size>kB - file-thp-pte-unaligned-<size>kB Statistics are also always generated for mapped pages that belong to a THP but where the is THP is *not* fully- and contiguously- mapped. These "partial" mappings are all counted in the same counter regardless of the size of the THP that is partially mapped: - anon-thp-pte-partial - file-thp-pte-partial Contiguous Block Statistics --------------------------- An optional, additional set of statistics is generated for every contiguous block size specified with `--cont <size>`. These statistics show how much memory is mapped in contiguous blocks of <size> and also aligned to <size>. A given contiguous block must all belong to the same THP, but there is no requirement for it to be the *whole* THP. Separate counters describe contiguous blocks mapped by PTE vs those mapped by PMD: - anon-cont-pte-aligned-<size>kB - file-cont-pte-aligned-<size>kB - anon-cont-pmd-aligned-<size>kB - file-cont-pmd-aligned-<size>kB As an example, if monitoring 64K contiguous blocks (--cont 64K), there are a number of sources that could provide such blocks: a fully- and contiguously-mapped 64K THP that is aligned to a 64K boundary would provide 1 block. A fully- and contiguously-mapped 128K THP that is aligned to at least a 64K boundary would provide 2 blocks. Or a 128K THP that maps its first 100K, but contiguously and starting at a 64K boundary would provide 1 block. A fully- and contiguously-mapped 2M THP would provide 32 blocks. There are many other possible permutations. options: -h, --help show this help message and exit --pid pid Process id of the target process. Maybe issued multiple times to scan multiple processes. --pid and --cgroup are mutually exclusive. If neither are provided, all processes are scanned to provide system-wide information. --cgroup path Path to the target cgroup in sysfs. Iterates over every pid in the cgroup and its children. --pid and --cgroup are mutually exclusive. If neither are provided, all processes are scanned to provide system-wide information. --rollup Sum the per-vma statistics to provide a summary over the whole system, process or cgroup. --cont size[KMG] Adds stats for memory that is mapped in contiguous blocks of <size> and also aligned to <size>. May be issued multiple times to track multiple sized blocks. Useful to infer e.g. arm64 contpte and hpa mappings. Size must be a power-of-2 number of pages. --inc-smaps Include all numerical, additive /proc/<pid>/smaps stats in the output. --inc-empty Show all statistics including those whose value is 0. --periodic sleep_ms Run in a loop, polling every sleep_ms milliseconds. Requires root privilege to access pagemap and kpageflags. --8<-- Example command to summarise fully and partially mapped THPs and 64K contiguous blocks over all VMAs in all processes in the system (--inc-empty forces printing stats that are 0): # ./thpmaps --cont 64K --rollup --inc-empty --8<-- anon-thp-pmd-aligned-2048kB: 139264 kB ( 6%) file-thp-pmd-aligned-2048kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-aligned-16kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-aligned-32kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-aligned-64kB: 72256 kB ( 3%) anon-thp-pte-aligned-128kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-aligned-256kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-aligned-512kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-aligned-1024kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-aligned-2048kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-unaligned-16kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-unaligned-32kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-unaligned-64kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-unaligned-128kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-unaligned-256kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-unaligned-512kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-unaligned-1024kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-unaligned-2048kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-thp-pte-partial: 63232 kB ( 3%) file-thp-pte-aligned-16kB: 809024 kB (47%) file-thp-pte-aligned-32kB: 43168 kB ( 3%) file-thp-pte-aligned-64kB: 98496 kB ( 6%) file-thp-pte-aligned-128kB: 17536 kB ( 1%) file-thp-pte-aligned-256kB: 0 kB ( 0%) file-thp-pte-aligned-512kB: 0 kB ( 0%) file-thp-pte-aligned-1024kB: 0 kB ( 0%) file-thp-pte-aligned-2048kB: 0 kB ( 0%) file-thp-pte-unaligned-16kB: 21712 kB ( 1%) file-thp-pte-unaligned-32kB: 704 kB ( 0%) file-thp-pte-unaligned-64kB: 896 kB ( 0%) file-thp-pte-unaligned-128kB: 44928 kB ( 3%) file-thp-pte-unaligned-256kB: 0 kB ( 0%) file-thp-pte-unaligned-512kB: 0 kB ( 0%) file-thp-pte-unaligned-1024kB: 0 kB ( 0%) file-thp-pte-unaligned-2048kB: 0 kB ( 0%) file-thp-pte-partial: 9252 kB ( 1%) anon-cont-pmd-aligned-64kB: 139264 kB ( 6%) file-cont-pmd-aligned-64kB: 0 kB ( 0%) anon-cont-pte-aligned-64kB: 100672 kB ( 4%) file-cont-pte-aligned-64kB: 161856 kB ( 9%) --8<-- Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240116141235.960842-1-ryan.roberts@arm.com Signed-off-by: Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts@arm.com> Tested-by: Barry Song <v-songbaohua@oppo.com> Cc: Alistair Popple <apopple@nvidia.com> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: John Hubbard <jhubbard@nvidia.com> Cc: Kefeng Wang <wangkefeng.wang@huawei.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Cc: William Kucharski <william.kucharski@oracle.com> Cc: Zenghui Yu <yuzenghui@huawei.com> Cc: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the additional commands and timestamps added to the tool, the default case (-t) has been broken. Now that the allocation timestamps are saved outside of the txt field, allow us to properly sort the data by number of times the record has been seen. Furthermore prevent the misuse of the commandline arguments so only one compare option can be used.

* tools/mm: filter out timestamps for correct collationAudra Mitchell2023-10-181-7/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the introduction of allocation timestamps being included in page_owner output, each record becomes unique due to the timestamp nanosecond granularity. Remove the check in add_list that tries to collate each record during processing as the memcmp() is just additional overhead at this point. Also keep the allocation timestamps, but allow collation to occur without consideration of the allocation timestamp except in the case were allocation timestamps are requested by the user (the -a option).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now there is no way to provide additional cflags/ldflags when building tools/vm binaries. And using eg. make CFLAGS=<options> will override the CFLAGS being set in the Makefile, making the build fail since it requires the include of the ../lib dir (for libapi). This change then allows you to specify: CFLAGS=<options> LDFLAGS=<options> make V=1 -C tools/vm And the options will be correctly appended as can be seen from the make output.
