Does it make sense to have a KVM-only entry there as well? In that case, if SecPageTables in /proc/meminfo is found to be suspiciously high, it should be easy to tell which component is contributing most usage through vmstat. I understand that users can do the subtraction, but we wouldn't want userspace depending on that, in case a third class of "secondary" page tables emerges that we want to add to SecPageTables. The in-kernel implementation can do the subtraction for now if it makes sense though. > > Accountability: using sec_pagetables cgroup-v2 memory.stat entry. > > With the change, iova_stress[1] stops as limit is reached: > > # ./iova_stress > iova space: 0T free memory: 497G > iova space: 1T free memory: 495G > iova space: 2T free memory: 493G > iova space: 3T free memory: 491G > > stops as limit is reached. > > This series encorporates suggestions that came from the discussion > at LPC [2]. > > [1] https://github.com/soleen/iova_stress > [2] https://lpc.events/event/17/contributions/1466 > > Pasha Tatashin (16): > iommu/vt-d: add wrapper functions for page allocations > iommu/amd: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > iommu/io-pgtable-arm: use page allocation function provided by > iommu-pages.h > iommu/io-pgtable-dart: use page allocation function provided by > iommu-pages.h > iommu/io-pgtable-arm-v7s: use page allocation function provided by > iommu-pages.h > iommu/dma: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > iommu/exynos: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > iommu/fsl: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > iommu/iommufd: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > iommu/rockchip: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > iommu/sun50i: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > iommu/tegra-smmu: use page allocation function provided by > iommu-pages.h > iommu: observability of the IOMMU allocations > iommu: account IOMMU allocated memory > vhost-vdpa: account iommu allocations > vfio: account iommu allocations > > Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst | 2 +- > Documentation/filesystems/proc.rst | 4 +- > drivers/iommu/amd/amd_iommu.h | 8 - > drivers/iommu/amd/init.c | 91 +++++----- > drivers/iommu/amd/io_pgtable.c | 13 +- > drivers/iommu/amd/io_pgtable_v2.c | 20 +- > drivers/iommu/amd/iommu.c | 13 +- > drivers/iommu/dma-iommu.c | 8 +- > drivers/iommu/exynos-iommu.c | 14 +- > drivers/iommu/fsl_pamu.c | 5 +- > drivers/iommu/intel/dmar.c | 10 +- > drivers/iommu/intel/iommu.c | 47 ++--- > drivers/iommu/intel/iommu.h | 2 - > drivers/iommu/intel/irq_remapping.c | 10 +- > drivers/iommu/intel/pasid.c | 12 +- > drivers/iommu/intel/svm.c | 7 +- > drivers/iommu/io-pgtable-arm-v7s.c | 9 +- > drivers/iommu/io-pgtable-arm.c | 7 +- > drivers/iommu/io-pgtable-dart.c | 37 ++-- > drivers/iommu/iommu-pages.h | 231 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ > drivers/iommu/iommufd/iova_bitmap.c | 6 +- > drivers/iommu/rockchip-iommu.c | 14 +- > drivers/iommu/sun50i-iommu.c | 7 +- > drivers/iommu/tegra-smmu.c | 18 +- > drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_type1.c | 8 +- > drivers/vhost/vdpa.c | 3 +- > include/linux/mmzone.h | 5 +- > mm/vmstat.c | 3 + > 28 files changed, 415 insertions(+), 199 deletions(-) > create mode 100644 drivers/iommu/iommu-pages.h > > -- > 2.43.0.rc2.451.g8631bc7472-goog > >

On the other hand KVM only can be computed by subtracting one from another as there are only two types of secondary page tables, KVM and IOMMU: /sys/devices/system/node/node0/meminfo Node 0 SecPageTables: 422204 kB /sys/devices/system/node/nodeN/vmstat nr_iommu_pages 105555 KVM only = SecPageTables - nr_iommu_pages * PAGE_SIZE / 1024 Pasha > > > > > Accountability: using sec_pagetables cgroup-v2 memory.stat entry. > > > > With the change, iova_stress[1] stops as limit is reached: > > > > # ./iova_stress > > iova space: 0T free memory: 497G > > iova space: 1T free memory: 495G > > iova space: 2T free memory: 493G > > iova space: 3T free memory: 491G > > > > stops as limit is reached. > > > > This series encorporates suggestions that came from the discussion > > at LPC [2]. > > > > [1] https://github.com/soleen/iova_stress > > [2] https://lpc.events/event/17/contributions/1466 > > > > Pasha Tatashin (16): > > iommu/vt-d: add wrapper functions for page allocations > > iommu/amd: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > > iommu/io-pgtable-arm: use page allocation function provided by > > iommu-pages.h > > iommu/io-pgtable-dart: use page allocation function provided by > > iommu-pages.h > > iommu/io-pgtable-arm-v7s: use page allocation function provided by > > iommu-pages.h > > iommu/dma: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > > iommu/exynos: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > > iommu/fsl: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > > iommu/iommufd: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > > iommu/rockchip: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > > iommu/sun50i: use page allocation function provided by iommu-pages.h > > iommu/tegra-smmu: use page allocation function provided by > > iommu-pages.h > > iommu: observability of the IOMMU allocations > > iommu: account IOMMU allocated memory > > vhost-vdpa: account iommu allocations > > vfio: account iommu allocations > > > > Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst | 2 +- > > Documentation/filesystems/proc.rst | 4 +- > > drivers/iommu/amd/amd_iommu.h | 8 - > > drivers/iommu/amd/init.c | 91 +++++----- > > drivers/iommu/amd/io_pgtable.c | 13 +- > > drivers/iommu/amd/io_pgtable_v2.c | 20 +- > > drivers/iommu/amd/iommu.c | 13 +- > > drivers/iommu/dma-iommu.c | 8 +- > > drivers/iommu/exynos-iommu.c | 14 +- > > drivers/iommu/fsl_pamu.c | 5 +- > > drivers/iommu/intel/dmar.c | 10 +- > > drivers/iommu/intel/iommu.c | 47 ++--- > > drivers/iommu/intel/iommu.h | 2 - > > drivers/iommu/intel/irq_remapping.c | 10 +- > > drivers/iommu/intel/pasid.c | 12 +- > > drivers/iommu/intel/svm.c | 7 +- > > drivers/iommu/io-pgtable-arm-v7s.c | 9 +- > > drivers/iommu/io-pgtable-arm.c | 7 +- > > drivers/iommu/io-pgtable-dart.c | 37 ++-- > > drivers/iommu/iommu-pages.h | 231 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ > > drivers/iommu/iommufd/iova_bitmap.c | 6 +- > > drivers/iommu/rockchip-iommu.c | 14 +- > > drivers/iommu/sun50i-iommu.c | 7 +- > > drivers/iommu/tegra-smmu.c | 18 +- > > drivers/vfio/vfio_iommu_type1.c | 8 +- > > drivers/vhost/vdpa.c | 3 +- > > include/linux/mmzone.h | 5 +- > > mm/vmstat.c | 3 + > > 28 files changed, 415 insertions(+), 199 deletions(-) > > create mode 100644 drivers/iommu/iommu-pages.h > > > > -- > > 2.43.0.rc2.451.g8631bc7472-goog > > > >

I'd like to avoid that if possible. We can do the subtraction in the kernel.

What Sean had suggested was that SecPageTables was always intended to account all the non-primary mmu memory used by page tables. If this is the case we shouldn't be trying to break it apart into finer counters. These are big picture counters, not detailed allocation by owner counters. Jason

Right, I agree with that, but if SecPageTables includes page tables from multiple sources, and it is observed to be suspiciously high, the logical next step is to try to find the culprit, right? > > Jason

You can make that case already, if it is high wouldn't you want to find the exact VMM process that was making it high? It is a sign of fire, not a detailed debug tool. Jason

Fair enough. We can always add separate counters later if needed, potentially under KVM stats to get more fine-grained details as you mentioned. I am only worried about users subtracting the iommu-only counter to get a KVM counter. We should at least document that SecPageTables may be expanded to include other sources later to avoid that. > > Jason

Well, we just broke it already, anyone thinking it was only kvm counters is going to be sad now :) As I understand it was already described to be more general that kvm so probably nothing to do really Jason
From: Pasha Tatashin <tatashin@google.com> IOMMU subsystem may contain state that is in gigabytes. Majority of that state is iommu page tables. Yet, there is currently, no way to observe how much memory is actually used by the iommu subsystem. This patch series solves this problem by adding both observability to all pages that are allocated by IOMMU, and also accountability, so admins can limit the amount if via cgroups. The system-wide observability is using /proc/meminfo: SecPageTables: 438176 kB Contains IOMMU and KVM memory. Per-node observability: /sys/devices/system/node/nodeN/meminfo Node N SecPageTables: 422204 kB Contains IOMMU and KVM memory memory in the given NUMA node. Per-node IOMMU only observability: /sys/devices/system/node/nodeN/vmstat nr_iommu_pages 105555 Contains number of pages IOMMU allocated in the given node. Accountability: using sec_pagetables cgroup-v2 memory.stat entry. With the change, iova_stress[1] stops as limit is reached: # ./iova_stress iova space: 0T free memory: 497G iova space: 1T free memory: 495G iova space: 2T free memory: 493G iova space: 3T free memory: 491G stops as limit is reached. This series encorporates suggestions that came from the discussion at LPC [2].
