I mentioned the same the last time I looked at this. On looking again, perhaps it might even make sense to create a filemap_cachestat() to split up the syscall bits from the associated map walking bits..? That subsequently raises the question of whether a new .c file is really necessary.. Brian

You are using copy_to_user() later, right? Oh I didn't realize copy_to_user() would suffice - mincore also has this check: if (!access_ok(vec, pages)) return -EFAULT; (even though it also has a similar check with copy_to_user), so I just erred on the side of safety and included it. If this is redundant, I'll just remove it from the next version. > > > + f = fdget(fd); > > + if (f.file) { > > It would be easier to read if you inverted the condition here. Oh I think I tried if (!f.file) return -EBADF; here, but there are some mixing-code-with-decl warnings. If I recall correctly, the problem is with this line: XA_STATE(xas, &mapping->i_pages, first_index); which is expanded into a declaration: #define XA_STATE(name, array, index) \ struct xa_state name = __XA_STATE(array, index, 0, 0) It requires a valid mapping though, which is obtained from f.file: struct address_space *mapping = f.file->f_mapping; so it cannot be moved above the if(!f.file) check either...

Perhaps you're trying to do too much in a single function?

That's fair. In an ancient version of this, I did try to separate the folio-walking logic into its own function, but then decided against it because it seemed unnecessary. That was before the complexity of that piece of logic blew up to the current situation though, so perhaps it is time to revisit this decision and refactor it.

But I'm impartial with respect to the refactoring otherwise. I'll just give it a shot and see if it looks cleaner. (BTW - I just realized this is the v2 thread. I have sent out a v3 - feel free to take a look at that as well! These comments are still valid for the new version though).

Implement a new syscall that queries cache state of a file and summarizes the number of cached pages, number of dirty pages, number of pages marked for writeback, number of (recently) evicted pages, etc. in a given range. NAME cachestat - query the page cache status of a file. SYNOPSIS #include <sys/mman.h> struct cachestat { __u64 nr_cache; __u64 nr_dirty; __u64 nr_writeback; __u64 nr_evicted; __u64 nr_recently_evicted; }; int cachestat(unsigned int fd, off_t off, size_t len, size_t cstat_size, struct cachestat *cstat); DESCRIPTION cachestat() queries the number of cached pages, number of dirty pages, number of pages marked for writeback, number of (recently) evicted pages, in the bytes range given by `off` and `len`. These values are returned in a cachestat struct, whose address is given by the `cstat` argument. The `off` and `len` arguments must be non-negative integers. If `len` > 0, the queried range is [`off`, `off` + `len`]. If `len` == 0, we will query in the range from `off` to the end of the file. `cstat_size` allows users to obtain partial results. The syscall will copy the first `csstat_size` bytes to the specified userspace memory. `cstat_size` must be a non-negative value that is no larger than the current size of the cachestat struct. RETURN VALUE On success, cachestat returns 0. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error. ERRORS EFAULT cstat points to an invalid address. EINVAL `off` or `len` is negative, or invalid `cstat_size`. EBADF invalid file descriptor.
