This will not work well for the problem at hand, the heap profiler (heapprofd) only wants to clear the idle flag for the heap memory area which is what it is profiling. There is no reason to do it for all mapped pages. Using the /proc/pid/page_idle in my patch, it can be done selectively for particular memory areas. I had previously thought of having an interface that accepts an address range to set the idle flag, however that is also more complexity. thanks, - Joel > Signed-off-by: Konstantin Khlebnikov <khlebni...@yandex-team.ru> > Link: > https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190722213205.140845-1-j...@joelfernandes.org/ > --- > Documentation/admin-guide/mm/pagemap.rst | 3 ++- > Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt | 3 +++ > fs/proc/task_mmu.c | 33 > ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- > 3 files changed, 36 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/Documentation/admin-guide/mm/pagemap.rst > b/Documentation/admin-guide/mm/pagemap.rst > index 340a5aee9b80..d7ee60287584 100644 > --- a/Documentation/admin-guide/mm/pagemap.rst > +++ b/Documentation/admin-guide/mm/pagemap.rst > @@ -21,7 +21,8 @@ There are four components to pagemap: > * Bit 55 pte is soft-dirty (see > :ref:`Documentation/admin-guide/mm/soft-dirty.rst <soft_dirty>`) > * Bit 56 page exclusively mapped (since 4.2) > - * Bits 57-60 zero > + * Bit 57 page is idle > + * Bits 58-60 zero > * Bit 61 page is file-page or shared-anon (since 3.5) > * Bit 62 page swapped > * Bit 63 page present > diff --git a/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt > b/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt > index 99ca040e3f90..d222be8b4eb9 100644 > --- a/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt > +++ b/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt > @@ -574,6 +574,9 @@ To reset the peak resident set size ("high water mark") > to the process's > current value: > > echo 5 > /proc/PID/clear_refs > > +To mark all mapped pages as idle: > + > echo 6 > /proc/PID/clear_refs > + > Any other value written to /proc/PID/clear_refs will have no effect. > > The /proc/pid/pagemap gives the PFN, which can be used to find the pageflags > diff --git a/fs/proc/task_mmu.c b/fs/proc/task_mmu.c > index 731642e0f5a0..6da952574a1f 100644 > --- a/fs/proc/task_mmu.c > +++ b/fs/proc/task_mmu.c > @@ -413,6 +413,7 @@ struct mem_size_stats { > unsigned long private_clean;
