This adds a total used dma-buf memory. Details
can be found in debugfs, however it is not for everyone
and not always available. dma-buf are indirect allocated by
userspace. So with this value we can monitor and detect
userspace applications that have problems.

How do you want to upstream this?

I don't understand that question. The patch applies on Torvalds 5.12-rc7,
but I guess 5.13 is what we work on right now.

Yeah, but how do you want to get it into Linus tree?

I can push it together with other DMA-buf patches through drm-misc-next 
and then Dave will send it to Linus for inclusion in 5.13.

But could be that you are pushing multiple changes towards Linus through 
some other branch. In this case I'm fine if you pick that way instead if 
you want to keep your patches together for some reason.

Christian.

It is a dma-buf functionality so it make very much sense that you as maintainer of dma-buf pick them the way you usually send them. I don't have any other path for this patch.

Thx!

dma_buf_allocated_pages is only called from fs/proc/meminfo.c.
I am confused why it should be exported. If it won't be called
from the driver module, we should not export it.

Thanks.

Ah. I thought you did not want the GPL restriction. I don't have real
opinion about it. It's written to be following the rest of the module.
It is not needed for the usage of dma-buf in kernel module. But I
don't see any reason for hiding it either.

The modules do not need dma_buf_allocated_pages, hiding it
can prevent the module from calling it. So I think that
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL is unnecessary. If one day someone
want to call it from the module, maybe it’s not too late to export
it at that time.

Yeah, that is a rather good point. Only symbols which should be used by 
modules/drivers should be exported.

The changelog would benefit from more background on why this is needed,
and who is the primary consumer of that value.

I cannot really comment on the dma-buf internals but I have two remarks.
Documentation/filesystems/proc.rst needs an update with the counter
explanation and secondly is this information useful for OOM situations
analysis? If yes then show_mem should dump the value as well.

From the implementation point of view, is there any reason why this
hasn't used the existing global_node_page_state infrastructure?

I fix doc in next version.  Im not sure what you expect the commit message to include.

The function of the meminfo is: (From Documentation/filesystems/proc.rst)

"Provides information about distribution and utilization of memory."

Im not the designed of dma-buf, I think  global_node_page_state as a kernel
internal. dma-buf is a device driver that provides a function so I might be
on the outside. However I also see that it might be relevant for a OOM.
It is memory that can be freed by killing userspace processes.

The show_mem thing. Should it be a separate patch?

As I've said. Usual justification covers answers to following questions
	- Why do we need it?
	- Why the existing data is insuficient?
	- Who is supposed to use the data and for what?

I can see an answer for the first two questions (because this can be a
lot of memory and the existing infrastructure is not production suitable
- debugfs). But the changelog doesn't really explain who is going to use
the new data. Is this a monitoring to raise an early alarm when the
value grows? Is this for debugging misbehaving drivers? How is it
valuable for those?

True. Yet we do not export any random counters, do we?

It provides a node specific and optimized counters. Is this a good fit
with your new counter? Or the NUMA locality is of no importance?

This is up to you but if you want to expose the counter then send it in
one series.

Sounds good to me, if Christian Koenig think it is good, I will use that.
It is only virtio in drivers that use the global_node_page_state if
that matters.

DMA-buf are not NUMA aware at all. On which node the pages are allocated 
(and if we use pages at all and not internal device memory) is up to the 
exporter and importer.

The question is not whether it is NUMA aware but whether it is useful to
know per-numa data for the purpose the counter is supposed to serve.

No, not at all. The pages of a single DMA-buf could even be from 
different NUMA nodes if the exporting driver decides that this is 
somehow useful.

As the use of the counter hasn't been explained yet I can only
speculate. One thing that I can imagine to be useful is to fill gaps in
our accounting. It is quite often that the memroy accounted in
/proc/meminfo (or oom report) doesn't add up to the overall memory
usage. In some workloads the workload can be huge! In many cases there
are other means to find out additional memory by a subsystem specific
interfaces (e.g. networking buffers). I do assume that dma-buf is just
one of those and the counter can fill the said gap at least partially
for some workloads. That is definitely useful.

What I am trying to bring up with NUMA side is that the same problem can
happen on per-node basis. Let's say that some user consumes unexpectedly
large amount of dma-buf on a certain node. This can lead to observable
performance impact on anybody on allocating from that node and even
worse cause an OOM for node bound consumers. How do I find out that it
was dma-buf that has caused the problem?

See where I am heading?

A bit off-topic.

Michal, I think it would have been nice to have an explanation like above
in Documentation/proc/meminfo, what do you say?

Yes, completely agree. I'm just not 100% sure if the DMA-buf framework 
should account for that or the individual drivers exporting DMA-bufs.

See below for a further explanation.

Yes, that is the direction my thinking goes as well, but also even further.

See DMA-buf is also used to share device local memory between processes 
as well. In other words VRAM on graphics hardware.

On my test system here I have 32GB of system memory and 16GB of VRAM. I 
can use DMA-buf to allocate that 16GB of VRAM quite easily which then 
shows up under /proc/meminfo as used memory.

But that isn't really system memory at all, it's just allocated device 
memory.

> See where I am heading?

Yeah, totally. Thanks for pointing this out.

Suggestions how to handle that?

Regards,
Christian.

This is something that would be really interesting in the changelog. I
mean the expected and extreme memory consumption of this memory. Ideally
with some hints on what to do when the number is really high (e.g. mount
debugfs and have a look here and there to check whether this is just too
many users or an unexpected pattern to be reported).

OK, that was not really clear to me. So this is not really accounted to
MemTotal? If that is really the case then reporting it into the oom
report is completely pointless and I am not even sure /proc/meminfo is
the right interface either. It would just add more confusion I am
afraid.

As I've pointed out in previous reply we do have an API to account per
node memory but now that you have brought up that this is not something
we account as a regular memory then this doesn't really fit into that
model. But maybe I am just confused.

Not sure which specific parts (likely the unaccounted memory?) but sure
why not. Our /proc/meminfo is rather underdocumented. More information
cannot hurt.

It depends. In a lot of embedded systems you only have system memory and 
in this case that value here is indeed really useful.

I kind of agree. As I said a DMA-buf could be backed by system memory or 
device memory.

In the case when it is backed by system memory it does make sense to 
report this in an OOM dump.

But only the exporting driver knows what the DMA-buf handle represents, 
the framework just provides the common ground for inter driver 
communication.

Well does that API also has a counter for memory used by device drivers?

If yes then the device driver who exported the DMA-buf should probably 
use that API. If no we might want to create one.

I mean the author of this patch seems to have an use case where this is 
needed and I also see that we have some hole in how we account memory.

Christian.

Then those drivers need to account for meminfo/oom report purposes.

I think that "memory used by device drivers" is immaterial. The only
important thing is to account that memory where it makes sense. So for
RAM based allocations to report them via meminfo and find other way to
report device memory allocations.

Small correction, we've already frozen for the merge window so this will
land in 5.14.

Why is it confusing? Documentation is quite clear:

"Provides information about distribution and utilization of memory. This
varies by architecture and compile options."

A topology with VRAM fits very well on that. The point is to have an
overview.

Because a single counter without a wider context cannot be put into any
reasonable context. There is no notion of the total amount of device
memory usable for dma-buf. As Christian explained some of it can be RAM
based. So a single number is rather pointless on its own in many cases.

Or let me just ask. What can you tell from dma-bud: $FOO kB in its
current form?

It is better to be blind? The value can still be used a relative metric.
You collect the data and see how it change. And when you see
a unexpected change you start to dig in. It fore sure wont tell what line
in your application that has a bug.  But it might be an indicator that
a new game trigger a leak. And it is very well specified, it exactly the
size of mapped dma-buf. For what you use dma-buf you need to know
other parts of the system.

No it is better to have a sensible counter that can be reasoned about.
So far you are only claiming that having something is better than
nothing and I would agree with you if that was a debugging one off
interface. But /proc/meminfo and other proc files have to be maintained
with future portability in mind. This is not a dumping ground for _some_
counters that might be interesting at the _current_ moment. E.g. what
happens if somebody wants to have a per device resp. memory based
dma-buf data? Are you going to change the semantic or add another
2 counters?

This is the DmaBufTotal. It is the upper limit. If is not there is  is something else.

And when we have a better resolution on measuring it, it would make sense
to add a DmaBufVram, DmaBufMemGC or what ever we can pickup.

This is what we can measure today.
