Patch #2 goes into a lot of details and background on some common patterns of using /proc//maps in the area of performance profiling and subsequent symbolization of captured stack traces. As mentioned in that patch, patterns of VMA querying can differ depending on specific use case, but can generally be grouped into two main categories: the need to query a small subset of VMAs covering a given batch of addresses, or reading/storing/caching all (typically, executable) VMAs upfront for later processing. The new PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl() API added in this patch set was motivated by the former pattern of usage. Earlier revisions had a patch adding a tool that faithfully reproduces an efficient VMA matching pass of a symbolizer, collecting a subset of covering VMAs for a given set of addresses as efficiently as possible. This tool served both as a testing ground, as well as a benchmarking tool. It implements everything both for currently existing text-based /proc//maps interface, as well as for newly-added PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl(). This revision dropped the tool from the patch set and, once the API lands upstream, this tool might be added separately on Github as an example. Based on discussion on earlier revisions of this patch set, it turned out that this ioctl() API is competitive with highly-optimized text-based pre-processing pattern that perf tool is using. Based on perf discussion, this revision adds more flexibility in specifying a subset of VMAs that are of interest. Now it's possible to specify desired permissions of VMAs (e.g., request only executable ones) and/or restrict to only a subset of VMAs that have file backing. This further improves the efficiency when using this new API thanks to more selective (executable VMAs only) querying. In addition to a custom benchmarking tool, and experimental perf integration (available at [0]), Daniel Mueller has since also implemented an experimental integration into blazesym (see [1]), a library used for stack trace symbolization by our server fleet-wide profiler and another on-device profiler agent that runs on weaker ARM devices. The latter ARM-based device profiler is especially sensitive to performance, and so we benchmarked and compared text-based /proc//maps solution to the equivalent one using PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl(). Results are very encouraging, giving us 5x improvement for end-to-end so-called "address normalization" pass, which is the part of the symbolization process that happens locally on ARM device, before being sent out for further heavier-weight processing on more powerful remote server. Note that this is not an artificial microbenchmark. It's a full end-to-end API call being measured with real-world data on real-world device. TEXT-BASED ========== Benchmarking main/normalize_process_no_build_ids_uncached_maps main/normalize_process_no_build_ids_uncached_maps time: [49.777 µs 49.982 µs 50.250 µs] IOCTL-BASED =========== Benchmarking main/normalize_process_no_build_ids_uncached_maps main/normalize_process_no_build_ids_uncached_maps time: [10.328 µs 10.391 µs 10.457 µs] change: [−79.453% −79.304% −79.166%] (p = 0.00 < 0.02) Performance has improved. You can see above that we see the drop from 50µs down to 10µs for exactly the same amount of work, with the same data and target process. With the aforementioned custom tool, we see about ~40x improvement (it might vary a bit, depending on a specific captured set of addresses). And even for perf-based benchmark it's on par or slightly ahead when using permission-based filtering (fetching only executable VMAs). Earlier revisions attempted to use per-VMA locking, if kernel was compiled with CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK=y, but it turned out that anon_vma_name() is not yet compatible with per-VMA locking and assumes mmap_lock to be taken, which makes the use of per-VMA locking for this API premature. It was agreed ([2]) to continue for now with just mmap_lock, but the code structure is such that it should be easy to add per-VMA locking support once all the pieces are ready. One thing that did not change was basing this new API as an ioctl() command on /proc//maps file. An ioctl-based API on top of pidfd was considered, but has its own downsides. Implementing ioctl() directly on pidfd will cause access permission checks on every single ioctl(), which leads to performance concerns and potential spam of capable() audit messages. It also prevents a nice pattern, possible with /proc//maps, in which application opens /proc/self/maps FD (requiring no additional capabilities) and passed this FD to profiling agent for querying. To achieve similar pattern, a new file would have to be created from pidf just for VMA querying, which is considered to be inferior to just querying /proc//maps FD as proposed in current approach. These aspects were discussed in the hallway track at recent LSF/MM/BPF 2024 and sticking to procfs ioctl() was the final agreement we arrived at. This patch set is based on top of mm-unstable branch in mm tree.
