Hm. I'd really prefer to keep this specific to actual anonymous memory, not extending it to anonymous files. Do we have any *actual* users where we don't have an alternative? I doubt that this is really required. The simplest approach seems to be to use memfd instead of MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS. __NR_memfd_create can be passed a name and you get what you propose here effectively already. Or does anything speak against it?

Are you suggesting adding another config specifically for shared memory?

Or does anything speak against it? For our use case the above does not work. We are working on highly paravirtualized virtual machines. The VMM maps VM memory as anonymous shared memory (not private because VMM is sandboxed and drivers are running in their own processes). However, the VM tells back to the VMM how parts of the memory are actually used by the guest, how each of the segments should be backed (i.e. 4K pages, 2M pages), and some other information about the segments. The naming allows us to monitor the effective memory footprint for each of these segments from the host without looking inside the guest. Pasha

That's a reasonable use case, although naive me would worry about #VMA limits etc. Can you add some condensed use-case explanation to the patch description? (IOW, memfd cannot be used because parts of the memfd are required to receive distinct names) I'd appreciate if we could avoid increasing the VMA size; but in any case Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>

Since: commit 9a10064f5625 ("mm: add a field to store names for private anonymous memory"), name for private anonymous memory, but not shared anonymous, can be set. However, naming shared anonymous memory just as useful for tracking purposes. Extend the functionality to be able to set names for shared anon. Sample output: /* Create shared anonymous segmenet */ anon_shmem = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); /* Name the segment: "MY-NAME" */ rv = prctl(PR_SET_VMA, PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME, anon_shmem, SIZE, "MY-NAME"); cat /proc/<pid>/maps (and smaps): 7fc8e2b4c000-7fc8f2b4c000 rw-s 00000000 00:01 1024 [anon_shmem:MY-NAME] Signed-off-by: Pasha Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@soleen.com> --- Documentation/filesystems/proc.rst | 8 +++++--- fs/proc/task_mmu.c | 14 ++++++++++---- include/linux/mm.h | 2 ++ include/linux/mm_types.h | 27 +++++++++++++-------------- mm/madvise.c | 7 ++----- mm/shmem.c | 20 ++++++++++++++++++-- 6 files changed, 50 insertions(+), 28 deletions(-) Changes since v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221105025342.3130038-1-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com - removed "path" for user named anon shared memory - fixed a warning found by kernel test robot - fixed a warning reported by Bagas Sanjaya - simplified and improved the commit log
