fs: proc: task_mmu: show page size in /proc/<pid>/numa_maps
The output of /proc/$pid/numa_maps is in terms of number of pages like
anon=22 or dirty=54. Here's some output:
7f4680000000 default file=/hugetlb/bigfile anon=50 dirty=50 N0=50
7f7659600000 default file=/anon_hugepage\040(deleted) anon=50 dirty=50 N0=50
7fff8d425000 default stack anon=50 dirty=50 N0=50
Looks like we have a stack and a couple of anonymous hugetlbfs
areas page which both use the same amount of memory. They don't.
The 'bigfile' uses 1GB pages and takes up ~50GB of space. The
anon_hugepage uses 2MB pages and takes up ~100MB of space while the stack
uses normal 4k pages. You can go over to smaps to figure out what the
page size _really_ is with KernelPageSize or MMUPageSize. But, I think
this is a pretty nasty and counterintuitive interface as it stands.
This patch introduces 'kernelpagesize_kB' line element to
/proc/<pid>/numa_maps report file in order to help identifying the size of
pages that are backing memory areas mapped by a given task. This is
specially useful to help differentiating between HUGE and GIGANTIC page
backed VMAs.
This patch is based on Dave Hansen's proposal and reviewer's follow-ups
taken from the following dicussion threads:
