tools/vm/page_owner: use page_owner_sort in the use example

2019-01-09T01:15:11Z

The example in comment does not useable because the output binary is named "page_owner_sort", not "sort".

tools/vm/page-types.c: fix "kpagecount returned fewer pages than expected" failures

2018-12-28T20:11:50Z

Because kpagecount_read() fakes success if map counts are not being collected, clamp the page count passed to it by walk_pfn() to the pages value returned by the preceding call to kpageflags_read().

tools/vm/page-types.c: add support for idle page tracking

2018-08-17T23:20:28Z

Add a flag which causes page-types to use the kernels's idle page tracking to mark pages idle. As the tool already prints the idle flag if set, subsequent runs will show which pages have been accessed since last run.

tools/vm/page-types.c: include shared map counts

2018-08-17T23:20:28Z

Add a new flag that will read kpagecount for each PFN and print out the number of times the page is mapped along with the flags in the listing view. This information is useful in understanding and optimizing memory usage. Identifying pages which are not shared allows us to focus on adjusting the memory layout or access patterns for the sole owning process. Knowing the number of processes that share a page tells us how many other times we must make the same adjustments or how many processes to potentially disable.

mm: mark pages in use for page tables

2018-06-08T00:34:37Z

Define a new PageTable bit in the page_type and use it to mark pages in use as page tables. This can be helpful when debugging crashdumps or analysing memory fragmentation. Add a KPF flag to report these pages to userspace and update page-types.c to interpret that flag. Note that only pages currently accounted as NR_PAGETABLES are tracked as PageTable; this does not include pgd/p4d/pud/pmd pages. Those will be the subject of a later patch.

tools: fix cross-compile var clobbering

2018-02-21T23:35:42Z

Currently a number of Makefiles break when used with toolchains that pass extra flags in CC and other cross-compile related variables (such as --sysroot). Thus we get this error when we use a toolchain that puts --sysroot in the CC var: ~/src/linux/tools$ make iio [snip] iio_event_monitor.c:18:10: fatal error: unistd.h: No such file or directory #include ^~~~~~~~~~ This occurs because we clobber several env vars related to cross-compiling with lines like this: CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc Although this will point to a valid cross-compiler, we lose any extra flags that might exist in the CC variable, which can break toolchains that rely on them (for example, those that use --sysroot). This easily shows up using a Yocto SDK: $ . [snip]/sdk/environment-setup-cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi $ echo $CC arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc -march=armv7-a -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=hard -mcpu=cortex-a8 --sysroot=[snip]/sdk/sysroots/cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi $ echo $CROSS_COMPILE arm-poky-linux-gnueabi- $ echo ${CROSS_COMPILE}gcc krm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc Although arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc is a cross-compiler, we've lost the --sysroot and other flags that enable us to find the right libraries to link against, so we can't find unistd.h and other libraries and headers. Normally with the --sysroot flag we would find unistd.h in the sdk directory in the sysroot: $ find [snip]/sdk/sysroots -path '*/usr/include/unistd.h' [snip]/sdk/sysroots/cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi/usr/include/unistd.h The perf Makefile adds CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc if and only if CC is not already set, and it compiles correctly with the above toolchain. So, generalize the logic that perf uses in the common Makefile and remove the manual CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc lines from each Makefile. Note that this patch does not fix cross-compile for all the tools (some have other bugs), but it does fix it for all except usb and acpi, which still have other unrelated issues. I tested both with and without the patch on native and cross-build and there appear to be no regressions.

tools, vm: new option to specify kpageflags file

2018-02-01T01:18:40Z

page-types currently hardcodes /proc/kpageflags as the file to parse. This works when using the tool to examine the state of pageflags on the same system, but does not allow storing a snapshot of pageflags at a given time to debug issues nor on a different system. This allows the user to specify a saved version of kpageflags with a new page-types -F option.
