Ok. The 1/3 patch, the whole "display where the stack is" thing is
obviously useful and we know that.
Today we display this:

I was the one who added the [stack], [heap] and [vdso] annotations a
few years ago and user-space developers liked it very much.
Tools parsing these files wont break [they dont care about the final
column] - so there's no ABI worries and we can certainly do more
here and enhance it.

It would be better to put this into a fresh, related feature that
went upstream recently:

That displays the kernel stack data - and we could display
information about the user-stack data as well.

This too should be unconditional IMO (it's useful, and
ultra-embedded systems worried about kernel .text size can turn off
CONFIG_PROC_FS anyway), _and_ i think we could do even better.
How about extending /proc/X/maps with:
b7db9000-b7fb9000 r--p 00000000 09:00 50364418 /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive
b7fb9000-b7fbb000 rw-p b7fb9000 00:00 0
bffc7000-bffdc000 rw-p bffeb000 00:00 0 [stack, usage: 1391 kB]
This is deterministically parseable, and meaningful-at-a-glance.
Similarly for 'thread stack'.
This way we dont need any new files in /proc - that just increases
the per task memory overhead.
What do you think?

b7fb9000-b7fbb000 rw-p b7fb9000 00:00 0
bffc7000-bffdc000 rw-p bffeb000 00:00 0 [stack, usage: 1391 kB]
This is deterministically parseable, and meaningful-at-a-glance.
Similarly for 'thread stack'.
This way we dont need any new files in /proc - that just increases
the per task memory overhead.
What do you think?

Hi everybody,
kernel 2.6.30 is near so i think it is time for the next try.
This is the new version of the "detailed stack info" patch which give
you a better overview of the userland application stack usage,
especially for embedded linux.
Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which
marks the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread
stack xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the start address of the stack.
Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/task/*/stat to the base
address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process. This makes more sense.
Changes since last posting:
- Redesigned everything what was suggested by Ingo
- the thread watch monitor is gone
- the /proc/stackmon entry is also gone
- slime done
The patch is against 2.6.30-rc7 and tested with on intel and ppc
architectures.
I think it is now ready for inclusion in the main kernel. Ingo what do
you think?

Stefani

That's not a very useful patch title. Something like
[patch] procfs: provide stack information for threads

Why not simply

?

And we return a number-of-pages. Fair enough.

So get_stack_pages() did a bytes-to-pages conversion then its sole
caller does a pages-to-bytes conversion. Can this be simplified?

Hi everybody,
This is the latest version of the formaly named "detailed stack info"
patch which give you a better overview of the userland application stack
usage, especially for embedded linux.
Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which
marks the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread
stack xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the start address of the stack.
Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/task/*/stat to the base
address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process. This makes more sense.
Changes since last posting:
- Redesigned everything what was suggested by Andrew
- slime done
The patch is against 2.6.30-rc7 and tested with on intel and ppc
architectures.

Hi everybody,
This is the latest version of the formaly named "detailed stack info"
patch which give you a better overview of the userland application stack
usage, especially for embedded linux.
Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which
marks the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread
stack xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the start address of the stack.
Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/task/*/stat to the base
address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process. This makes more sense.
Changes since last posting:
- Redesigned everything what was suggested by Andrew
- slime done

architectures.

No, this is correct... I walk through the top of vma to the first mapped

thats okay! And i have no idea how to make this expression

Add a new intermediate variable:
unsigned long stack_start;
struct proc_maps_private *pmp;
pmp = m->private;
stack_start = pmp->task->stack_start;

This is the newest version of the formaly named "detailed stack info"
patch which give you a better overview of the userland application stack
usage, especially for embedded linux.
Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which
marks the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread
stack xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the start address of the stack.
Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/task/*/stat to the base
address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process. This makes more sense.
Changes since last posting:
- Code cleanup suggested by Andrew
The patch is against 2.6.30-rc7 and tested with on intel and ppc
architectures.

Both follow_page() and find_vma() require locking: down_read(mmap_sem)
or down_write(mmap_sem). down_read() is appropriate here.

You're making changes to the user interface but it's not terribly clear
what they look like. Please include sample output from the affected
procfs files so that we can review the proposed changes.
Please update the userspace documentation to reflect the changes.
Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt documents VmStk, so probably that is
the appropriate place.

Good idea, but the proc.txt documentation about /proc/<pid>/status (line
140) and the contents of the /proc/<pid>/stat file (line 192) is
complete outdated. And there is also no documentation
about /proc/<pid>/*maps.
So i want to try to fix the missing documentation in proc.txt in a
separate patch. Will this okay by you?

This is the newest version of the formaly named "detailed stack info"
patch which give you a better overview of the userland application stack
usage, especially for embedded linux.
Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which
marks the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread
stack xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the start address of the stack. This is a
value information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack
to the top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage.
A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like:
08048000-08049000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8312 /opt/z

Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
A sample output of /proc/self/status looks like:
Name: cat
State: R (running)
Tgid: 507
Pid: 507
.
.
.
CapBnd: fffffffffffffeff
voluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
Stack usage: 12 kB
I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the
base address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process. This makes more sense.
Changes since last posting:
- Fix missing mm->mmap_sem locking in function task_show_stack_usage()
- Code cleanup
The patch is against 2.6.30-rc7 and tested with on intel and ppc
architectures.
The update of the Documentations/filesystems/procfs.txt will follow in a
future patch, because it is outdated and a want to fix the entry for the
status, stat, maps and smaps entries.
ChangeLog:

* [patch] procfs: provide stack information for threads V0.6

To: linux-kernel, linux-mm; +Cc: Andrew Morton
This is the newest version of the formaly named "detailed stack info"
patch which give you a better overview of the userland application stack
usage, especially for embedded linux.
Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which
marks the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread
stack xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the start address of the stack. This is a
value information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack
to the top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage.
A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like:
08048000-08049000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8312 /opt/z

ffffe000-fffff000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso]
Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
A sample output of /proc/self/status looks like:
Name: cat
State: R (running)
Tgid: 507
Pid: 507
.
.
.
CapBnd: fffffffffffffeff
voluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
Stack usage: 12 kB
I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the
base address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process. This makes more sense.
Changes since last posting:
- Fix missing mm->mmap_sem locking in function task_show_stack_usage()
- Code cleanup
The patch is against 2.6.30-rc7 and tested with on intel and ppc
architectures.
The update of the Documentations/filesystems/procfs.txt will follow in a
future patch, because it is outdated and a want to fix the entry for the
status, stat, maps and smaps entries.

Sorry, but it would be much preferable to do this as two patches. The
first fixes up proc.txt and the second adds the
stack-information-for-threads material.
This is because the two changes are quite conceptually distinct, and we
might end up wanting to merge one chage and not the other.

That is really frustrating. I did everything that you and ingo molnar
had complained.
What is wrong with the "provide stack information for threads"? It is a
very tiny patch which did not harm.
The only reason to fix and update the proc.txt was that you told me that
this is the last thing that you miss.

Okay, if the other patch will not included than it makes no sense for me
to get in the other.
Simple question: will you accept the thread stack info patch or not? If
yes, i will spent the time to split proc.txt patch.

It's more a procedural thing really. We've learnt that it's best to
avoid mixing more than a single "concept" into a single patch. For a
whole pile of reasons: reviewability, bisectability, revertability,
testability, etc.
In this case, it's unobvious which parts of the patch were specific to
the stack-information-for-threads changes and which parts were not.
This makes it hard to review your proposed changes.

It looks OK to me now. If it passes testing and nobody has fatal
objections then yes, I expect it'll be merged in 2.6.31.
The way to organise these changes is
[patch 1/2] fix proc.txt
[patch 2/2] procfs: provide stack information for threads
The second patch will contain a small update to proc.txt.

This is a patch against the file Documentation/filesystem/proc.txt.
It is an update for the "Process-Specific Subdirectories" to reflect
the changes till kernel 2.6.30.

* [patch 2/2] procfs: provide stack information for threads V0.7

This is the newest version of the formaly named "detailed stack info"
patch which give you a better overview of the userland application stack
usage, especially for embedded linux.
Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which
marks the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread
stack xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the start address of the stack. This is a
value information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack
to the top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage.
A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like:
08048000-08049000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8312 /opt/z

ffffe000-fffff000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso]
Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
A sample output of /proc/self/status looks like:
Name: cat
State: R (running)
Tgid: 507
Pid: 507
.
.
.
CapBnd: fffffffffffffeff
voluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
Stack usage: 12 kB
I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the
base address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process. This makes more sense.

This is the newest version of the formaly named "detailed stack info"
patch which give you a better overview of the userland application stack
usage, especially for embedded linux.
Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which
marks the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread
stack xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the start address of the stack. This is a
value information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack
to the top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage.
A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like:
08048000-08049000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8312 /opt/z

ffffe000-fffff000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso]
Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
A sample output of /proc/self/status looks like:
Name: cat
State: R (running)
Tgid: 507
Pid: 507
.
.
.
CapBnd: fffffffffffffeff
voluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
Stack usage: 12 kB
I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the
base address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process. This makes more sense.
Changes since last posting:
- update Documentation/filesystem/proc.txt
The patch is against 2.6.30-rc7 and tested with on intel and ppc
architectures.
ChangeLog:
20. Jan 2009 V0.1

- Ported to Kernel 2.6.29
03. Jun 2009 V0.3
- Ported to Kernel 2.6.30
- Redesigned what was suggested by Ingo Molnar
- the thread watch monitor is gone
- the /proc/stackmon entry is also gone
- slim down
04. Jun 2009 V0.4
- Redesigned everything that was suggested by Andrew Morton
- slim down
04. Jun 2009 V0.5

Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
A sample output of /proc/self/status looks like:
Name: cat
State: R (running)
Tgid: 507
Pid: 507
.
.
.
CapBnd: fffffffffffffeff
voluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
Stack usage: 12 kB
I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the
base address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process. This makes more sense.
Changes since last posting:
- change maps/smaps output, displays now the max. stack size
The patch is against 2.6.30-rc7 and tested with on intel and ppc
architectures.

From: Stefani Seibold @ 2009-06-10 7:20 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: linux-kernel, linux-mm; +Cc: Andrew Morton
This is the newest version of the formaly named "detailed stack info"
patch which give you a better overview of the userland application stack
usage, especially for embedded linux.
Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which
marks the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread
stack xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the maximum size of stack. This is a
value information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack
to the top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage.
A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like:

A `stack_start' in the task_struct. This is a bit confusing - we
already have a `void *stack' in there. Perhaps this should be named
user_stack_start or something?

IMHO i think the void *stack is also a to general name, it should be
name kernel_stack or thread_info.
In real we have two stack, so the name user_stack and kernel_stack would
be my favor.
I have examined the source and and task_struct void *stack would be used
in about 10 files.

That does not work right. I sometimes get meaningless values printed
for the stack usage in /proc/*/status (like 18014398509480456 kB), and
the stack start in /proc/*/stat is wrong. Apparently task->stack_start
contains the stack start of the _parent_ process.
