From e4dcad204d3a281be6f8573e0a82648a4ad84e69 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Joel Fernandes (Google)" Date: Sat, 30 Nov 2019 17:50:33 -0800 Subject: rss_stat: add support to detect RSS updates of external mm When a process updates the RSS of a different process, the rss_stat tracepoint appears in the context of the process doing the update. This can confuse userspace that the RSS of process doing the update is updated, while in reality a different process's RSS was updated. This issue happens in reclaim paths such as with direct reclaim or background reclaim. This patch adds more information to the tracepoint about whether the mm being updated belongs to the current process's context (curr field). We also include a hash of the mm pointer so that the process who the mm belongs to can be uniquely identified (mm_id field). Also vsprintf.c is refactored a bit to allow reuse of hashing code.
