There is currently no good way to query the page cache state of large
file sets and directory trees. There is mincore(), but it scales poorly:
the kernel writes out a lot of bitmap data that userspace has to
aggregate, when the user really doesn not care about per-page information
in that case. The user also needs to mmap and unmap each file as it goes
along, which can be quite slow as well.
This series of patches introduces a new system call, cachestat, that
summarizes the page cache statistics (number of cached pages, dirty
pages, pages marked for writeback, evicted pages etc.) of a file, in a
specified range of bytes. It also include a selftest suite that tests some
typical usage. Currently, the syscall is only wired in for x86
architecture.
This interface is inspired by past discussion and concerns with fincore,
which has a similar design (and as a result, issues) as mincore.

https://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1302.1/04209.html
For comparison with mincore, I ran both syscalls on a 2TB sparse file:
Using mincore:
real 0m37.510s
user 0m2.934s
sys 0m34.558s
Using cachestat:
real 0m0.009s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.009s

2.39.1
In preparation for computing recently evicted pages in cachestat,
refactor workingset_refault and lru_gen_refault to expose a helper
function that would test if an evicted page is recently evicted.

2.39.1
There is currently no good way to query the page cache state of large
file sets and directory trees. There is mincore(), but it scales poorly:
the kernel writes out a lot of bitmap data that userspace has to
aggregate, when the user really doesn not care about per-page
information in that case. The user also needs to mmap and unmap each
file as it goes along, which can be quite slow as well.
This patch implements 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. Currently, the syscall is only wired in for x86
architecture.
NAME
cachestat - query the page cache statistics 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, size_t len, loff_t off,
struct cachestat *cstat, unsigned int flags);
DESCRIPTION
cachestat() queries the number of cached pages, number of dirty
pages, number of pages marked for writeback, number of evicted
pages, number of recently evicted pages, in the bytes range given by
`off` and `len`.
An evicted page is a page that is previously in the page cache but
has been evicted since. A page is recently evicted if its last
eviction was recent enough that its reentry to the cache would
indicate that it is actively being used by the system, and that
there is memory pressure on the system.
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.
The `flags` argument is unused for now, but is included for future
extensibility. User should pass 0 (i.e no flag specified).
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 invalid offset or flags.
EBADF invalid file descriptor.

2.39.1
Test cachestat on a newly created file, /dev/ files, and /proc/ files.
Also test on a shmem file (which can also be tested with huge pages
since tmpfs supports huge pages).

I find this comment hard to understand. First it talks about "the
folio", but it doesn't pass a folio. Then it talks about "the
references", but I don't have any idea what those are either.
I think what you mean is,

1. Shouldn't this be kernel-doc?
2. Again, don't use the term "side effect" here. It's just one of
the things that the function _does_.

1. Why is this in fs.h instead of pagemap.h?
2. Why is it not static, since it's only used by the syscall,
which is also in filemap.c?

I ran a quick test using hugetlbfs. It looks like the current
implementation is treating it in accordance to the multi-page
folio case we discussed earlier, i.e:
- Returned number of "pages" is in terms of the number of
base/small pages (i.e 512 dirty pages instead of 1 dirty
huge page etc.)
- If we touch one byte in the huge page, it would report the
entire huge page as dirty, but again in terms of the underlying
pages.
Is this what you have in mind, or is there another edge
case that I'm missing...?
Thanks for the comments and suggestions, Matthew!

Hugetlbfs indexes its pages by hugepage number rather than by smallpage
number. Imagine you have a 2MB folio at offset 4MB into the file.
Filesystems other than hugetlbfs store it at indices 1024-1535.
hugetlbfs stores it at index 2.
So your report probably seems to work, but if you ask it about a
range, you might be surprised by how wide that range will cover for
hugetlbfs.
I know Sidhartha is working on fixing that, but I'm not sure if what he
has is working yet.

Oh I see! Thanks for letting us know about this, Matthew.
In that case, I think we should just drop support for hugetlbfs for now.
It's also an odd ball - not swappable, no backing files, not fully
under user management, etc., so it's less interesting with respect to
cachestat as well.
In the future, we can always lift this restriction with a follow-up patch
or with Sidhartha's fix.

Actually, I think I can remove its occurrence in another header file
altogether. I think it was an artifact from a past iteration, which
has filemap_cachestat in filemap.c but the syscall in its own
file (cachestat.c).
And you're right - we only have one use case for it now
(for the syscall). I'll make it static.

Will be fixed in the next version - thanks for letting me know!

Yeah that comment is incorrect/confusing with the pages terminology.
It'll be fixed!
