Implement binary ioctl()-based interface to /proc/<pid>/maps file to allow
applications to query VMA information more efficiently than reading *all* VMAs
nonselectively through text-based interface of /proc/<pid>/maps file.
Patch #3 goes into a lot of details and background on some common patterns of
using /proc/<pid>/maps in the area of performance profiling and subsequent
symbolization of captured stack traces. As mentioned in that patch, patterns
of VMA querying can differ depending on specific use case, but can generally
be grouped into two main categories: the need to query a small subset of VMAs
covering a given batch of addresses, or reading/storing/caching all
(typically, executable) VMAs upfront for later processing.
The new PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl() API added in this patch set was motivated by the
former pattern of usage. Patch #9 adds a tool that faithfully reproduces an
efficient VMA matching pass of a symbolizer, collecting a subset of covering
VMAs for a given set of addresses as efficiently as possible. This tool is
serving both as a testing ground, as well as a benchmarking tool.
It implements everything both for currently existing text-based
/proc/<pid>/maps interface, as well as for newly-added PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl().
But based on discussion on previous revision of this patch set, it turned out
that this ioctl() API is competitive with highly-optimized text-based
pre-processing pattern that perf tool is using. Based on perf discussion, this
revision adds more flexibility in specifying a subset of VMAs that are of
interest. Now it's possible to specify desired permissions of VMAs (e.g.,
request only executable ones) and/or restrict to only a subset of VMAs that
have file backing. This further improves the efficiency when using this new
API thanks to more selective (executable VMAs only) querying.
In addition to a custom benchmarking tool from patch #9, and experimental perf
integration (available at [0]), Daniel Mueller has since also implemented an
experimental integration into blazesym (see [1]), a library used for stack
trace symbolization by our server fleet-wide profiler and another on-device
profiler agent that runs on weaker ARM devices. The latter ARM-based device
profiler is especially sensitive to performance, and so we benchmarked and
compared text-based /proc/<pid>/maps solution to the equivalent one using
PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl().
Results are very encouraging, giving us 5x improvement for end-to-end
so-called "address normalization" pass, which is the part of the symbolization
process that happens locally on ARM device, before being sent out for further
heavier-weight processing on more powerful remote server. Note that this is
not an artificial microbenchmark. It's a full end-to-end API call being
measured with real-world data on real-world device.

Performance has improved.
You can see above that we see the drop from 50µs down to 10µs for exactly
the same amount of work, with the same data and target process.
Results for more synthentic benchmarks that hammer /proc/<pid>/maps processing
specifically can be found in patch #9. In short, we see about ~40x improvement
with our custom benchmark tool (it varies depending on captured set of
addresses, previous revision used a different set of captured addresses,
giving about ~35x improvement). And even for perf-based benchmark it's on par
or slightly ahead when using permission-based filtering (fetching only
executable VMAs).
Earlier revisions attempted to use per-VMA locking, if kernel was compiled
with CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK=y, but it turned out that anon_vma_name() is not yet
compatible with per-VMA locking and assumes mmap_lock to be taken, which makes
the use of per-VMA locking for this API premature. It was agreed ([2]) to
continue for now with just mmap_lock, but the code structure is such that it
should be easy to add per-VMA locking support once all the pieces are ready.
One thing that did not change was basing this new API as an ioctl() command
on /proc/<pid>/maps file. An ioctl-based API on top of pidfd was considered,
but has its own downsides. Implementing ioctl() directly on pidfd will cause
access permission checks on every single ioctl(), which leads to performance
concerns and potential spam of capable() audit messages. It also prevents
a nice pattern, possible with /proc/<pid>/maps, in which application opens
/proc/self/maps FD (requiring no additional capabilities) and passed this FD
to profiling agent for querying. To achieve similar pattern, a new file would
have to be created from pidf just for VMA querying, which is considered to be
inferior to just querying /proc/<pid>/maps FD as proposed in current approach.
These aspects were discussed in the hallway track at recent LSF/MM/BPF 2024
and sticking to procfs ioctl() was the final agreement we arrived at.
This patch set is based on top of next-20240611 tag in linux-next tree.

2.43.0
Extract generic logic to fetch relevant pieces of data to describe VMA
name. This could be just some string (either special constant or
user-provided), or a string with some formatted wrapping text (e.g.,
"[anon_shmem:<something>]"), or, commonly, file path. seq_file-based
logic has different methods to handle all three cases, but they are
currently mixed in with extracting underlying sources of data.
This patch splits this into data fetching and data formatting, so that
data fetching can be reused later on.
There should be no functional changes.

2.43.0
/proc/<pid>/maps file is extremely useful in practice for various tasks
involving figuring out process memory layout, what files are backing any
given memory range, etc. One important class of applications that
absolutely rely on this are profilers/stack symbolizers (perf tool being one
of them). Patterns of use differ, but they generally would fall into two
categories.
In on-demand pattern, a profiler/symbolizer would normally capture stack
trace containing absolute memory addresses of some functions, and would
then use /proc/<pid>/maps file to find corresponding backing ELF files
(normally, only executable VMAs are of interest), file offsets within
them, and then continue from there to get yet more information (ELF
symbols, DWARF information) to get human-readable symbolic information.
This pattern is used by Meta's fleet-wide profiler, as one example.
In preprocessing pattern, application doesn't know the set of addresses
of interest, so it has to fetch all relevant VMAs (again, probably only
executable ones), store or cache them, then proceed with profiling and
stack trace capture. Once done, it would do symbolization based on
stored VMA information. This can happen at much later point in time.
This patterns is used by perf tool, as an example.
In either case, there are both performance and correctness requirement
involved. This address to VMA information translation has to be done as
efficiently as possible, but also not miss any VMA (especially in the
case of loading/unloading shared libraries). In practice, correctness
can't be guaranteed (due to process dying before VMA data can be
captured, or shared library being unloaded, etc), but any effort to
maximize the chance of finding the VMA is appreciated.
Unfortunately, for all the /proc/<pid>/maps file universality and
usefulness, it doesn't fit the above use cases 100%.
First, it's main purpose is to emit all VMAs sequentially, but in
practice captured addresses would fall only into a smaller subset of all
process' VMAs, mainly containing executable text. Yet, library would
need to parse most or all of the contents to find needed VMAs, as there
is no way to skip VMAs that are of no use. Efficient library can do the
linear pass and it is still relatively efficient, but it's definitely an
overhead that can be avoided, if there was a way to do more targeted
querying of the relevant VMA information.
Second, it's a text based interface, which makes its programmatic use from
applications and libraries more cumbersome and inefficient due to the
need to handle text parsing to get necessary pieces of information. The
overhead is actually payed both by kernel, formatting originally binary
VMA data into text, and then by user space application, parsing it back
into binary data for further use.
For the on-demand pattern of usage, described above, another problem
when writing generic stack trace symbolization library is an unfortunate
performance-vs-correctness tradeoff that needs to be made. Library has
to make a decision to either cache parsed contents of /proc/<pid>/maps
(after initial processing) to service future requests (if application
requests to symbolize another set of addresses (for the same process),
captured at some later time, which is typical for periodic/continuous
profiling cases) to avoid higher costs of re-parsing this file. Or it
has to choose to cache the contents in memory to speed up future
requests. In the former case, more memory is used for the cache and
there is a risk of getting stale data if application loads or unloads
shared libraries, or otherwise changed its set of VMAs somehow, e.g.,
through additional mmap() calls. In the latter case, it's the
performance hit that comes from re-opening the file and re-parsing its
contents all over again.
This patch aims to solve this problem by providing a new API built on
top of /proc/<pid>/maps. It's meant to address both non-selectiveness
and text nature of /proc/<pid>/maps, by giving user more control of what
sort of VMA(s) needs to be queried, and being binary-based interface
eliminates the overhead of text formatting (on kernel side) and parsing
(on user space side).
It's also designed to be extensible and forward/backward compatible by
including required struct size field, which user has to provide. We use
established copy_struct_from_user() approach to handle extensibility.
User has a choice to pick either getting VMA that covers provided
address or -ENOENT if none is found (exact, least surprising, case). Or,
with an extra query flag (PROCMAP_QUERY_COVERING_OR_NEXT_VMA), they can
get either VMA that covers the address (if there is one), or the closest
next VMA (i.e., VMA with the smallest vm_start > addr). The latter allows
more efficient use, but, given it could be a surprising behavior,
requires an explicit opt-in.
There is another query flag that is useful for some use cases.
PROCMAP_QUERY_FILE_BACKED_VMA instructs this API to only return
file-backed VMAs. Combining this with PROCMAP_QUERY_COVERING_OR_NEXT_VMA
makes it possible to efficiently iterate only file-backed VMAs of the
process, which is what profilers/symbolizers are normally interested in.
All the above querying flags can be combined with (also optional) set of
desired VMA permissions flags. This allows to, for example, iterate only
an executable subset of VMAs, which is what preprocessing pattern, used
by perf tool, would benefit from, as the assumption is that captured
stack traces would have addresses of executable code. This saves time by
skipping non-executable VMAs altogether efficienty.
All these querying flags (modifiers) are orthogonal and can be combined
in a semantically meaningful and natural way.
Basing this ioctl()-based API on top of /proc/<pid>/maps's FD makes
sense given it's querying the same set of VMA data. It's also benefitial
because permission checks for /proc/<pid>/maps is performed at open time
once, and the actual data read of text contents of /proc/<pid>/maps is
done without further permission checks. We piggyback on this pattern
with ioctl()-based API as well, as that's a desired property. Both for
performance reasons, but also for security and flexibility reasons.
Allowing application to open an FD for /proc/self/maps without any extra
capabilities, and then passing it to some sort of profiling agent
through Unix-domain socket, would allow such profiling agent to not
require some of the capabilities that are otherwise expected when
opening /proc/<pid>/maps file for *another* process. This is a desirable
property for some more restricted setups.
This new ioctl-based implementation doesn't interfere with
seq_file-based implementation of /proc/<pid>/maps textual interface, and
so could be used together or independently without paying any price for
that.
Note also, that fetching VMA name (e.g., backing file path, or special
hard-coded or user-provided names) is optional just like build ID. If
user sets vma_name_size to zero, kernel code won't attempt to retrieve
it, saving resources.
Earlier versions of this patch set were adding per-VMA locking, which is
why we have a code structure that is ready for abstracting mmap_lock vs
vm_lock differences (query_vma_setup(), query_vma_teardown(), and
query_vma_find_by_addr()), but given anon_vma_name() is not yet compatible
with per-VMA locking, initial implementation sticks to using only
mmap_lock for now. It will be easy to add back per-VMA locking once all
the pieces are ready later on. Which is why we keep existing code
structure with setup/teardown/query helper functions.

2.43.0
The need to get ELF build ID reliably is an important aspect when
dealing with profiling and stack trace symbolization, and
/proc/<pid>/maps textual representation doesn't help with this.
To get backing file's ELF build ID, application has to first resolve
VMA, then use it's start/end address range to follow a special
/proc/<pid>/map_files/<start>-<end> symlink to open the ELF file (this
is necessary because backing file might have been removed from the disk
or was already replaced with another binary in the same file path.
Such approach, beyond just adding complexity of having to do a bunch of
extra work, has extra security implications. Because application opens
underlying ELF file and needs read access to its entire contents (as far
as kernel is concerned), kernel puts additional capable() checks on
following /proc/<pid>/map_files/<start>-<end> symlink. And that makes
sense in general.
But in the case of build ID, profiler/symbolizer doesn't need the
contents of ELF file, per se. It's only build ID that is of interest,
and ELF build ID itself doesn't provide any sensitive information.
So this patch adds a way to request backing file's ELF build ID along
the rest of VMA information in the same API. User has control over
whether this piece of information is requested or not by either setting
build_id_size field to zero or non-zero maximum buffer size they
provided through build_id_addr field (which encodes user pointer as
__u64 field). This is a completely optional piece of information, and so
has no performance implications for user cases that don't care about
build ID, while improving performance and simplifying the setup for
those application that do need it.
Kernel already implements build ID fetching, which is used from BPF
subsystem. We are reusing this code here, but plan a follow up changes
to make it work better under more relaxed assumption (compared to what
existing code assumes) of being called from user process context, in
which page faults are allowed. BPF-specific implementation currently
bails out if necessary part of ELF file is not paged in, all due to
extra BPF-specific restrictions (like the need to fetch build ID in
restrictive contexts such as NMI handler).

2.43.0
Implement a simple tool/benchmark for comparing address "resolution"
logic based on textual /proc/<pid>/maps interface and new binary
ioctl-based PROCMAP_QUERY command.
The tool expects a file with a list of hex addresses, relevant PID, and
then provides control over whether textual or binary ioctl-based ways to
process VMAs should be used.
The overall logic implements as efficient way to do batched processing
of a given set of (unsorted) addresses. We first sort them in increasing
order (remembering their original position to restore original order, if
necessary), and then process all VMAs from /proc/<pid>/maps, matching
addresses to VMAs and calculating file offsets, if matched. For
ioctl-based approach the idea is similar, but is implemented even more
efficiently, requesting only VMAs that cover all given addresses,
skipping all the irrelevant VMAs altogether.
To be able to compare efficiency of both APIs the tool has "benchark" mode.
User provides a number of processing runs to run in a tight loop, only timing
specifically /proc/<pid>/maps parsing and processing parts of the logic.
Address sorting and re-sorting is excluded. This gives a more direct way
to compare ioctl- vs text-based APIs.
We used a medium-sized production application to do representative
benchmark. A bunch of stack traces were captured, resulting in 3244
user space addresses (464 unique ones, but we didn't deduplicate them).
Application itself had 655 VMAs reported in /proc/<pid>/maps.
Averaging time taken to process all addresses 10000 times, showed that:
- text-based approach took 333 microseconds *per one batch run*;
- ioctl-based approach took 8 microseconds *per (identical) batch run*.
This gives about ~40x speed up to do exactly the same amount of work
(build IDs were not fetched for ioctl-based benchmark; fetching build
IDs resulted in 2x slowdown compared to no-build-ID case). The ratio
will vary depending on exact set of addresses and how many VMAs they are
mapped to. So 40x isn't something to take for granted, but it does show
possible improvements that are achievable.
I also did an strace run of both cases. In text-based one the tool did
27 read() syscalls, fetching up to 4KB of data in one go (which is
seq_file limitations, bumping the buffer size has no effect, as data is
always capped at 4KB). In comparison, ioctl-based implementation had to
do only 5 ioctl() calls to fetch all relevant VMAs.
It is projected that savings from processing big production applications
would only widen the gap in favor of binary-based querying ioctl API, as
bigger applications will tend to have even more non-executable VMA
mappings relative to executable ones. E.g., one of the larger production
applications in the server fleet has upwards of 20000 VMAs, which would
make benchmark even more unfair to processing /proc/<pid>/maps file.
This tool is implementing one of the patterns of usage, referred to as
"on-demand profiling" use case in the main patch implementing ioctl()
API. perf is an example of the pre-processing pattern in which all (or
all executable) VMAs are loaded and stored for further querying. We
implemented an experimental change to perf to benchmark text-based and
ioctl-based APIs, and in perf benchmarks ioctl-based interface was no
worse than optimized text-based parsing benchmark. Filtering to only
executable VMAs further made ioctl-based benchmarks faster, as perf
would be querying about 1/3 of all VMAs only, compared to the need to
read and parse all of VMAs.
E.g., running `perf bench internals synthesize --mt -M 8`, we are getting.

Instead of parsing text-based /proc/<pid>/maps file, try to use
PROCMAP_QUERY ioctl() to simplify and speed up data fetching.
This logic is used to do uprobe file offset calculation, so any bugs in
this logic would manifest as failing uprobe BPF selftests.
This also serves as a simple demonstration of one of the intended uses.

Should the selftests be under bpf/? This is a procfs feature which
could be used by many things apart from bpf and it really isn't a bpf
thing at all. Wouldn't tools/testing/selftests/proc/ be a more
appropriate place?

Yep, agreed. I used BPF selftests as a quick and simple way to
validate it's working end-to-end (because we use /proc/<pid>/maps
across a bunch of pre-existing BPF selftests, so that gave me good
coverage and signal). I'll look into adding more tests under
selftests/proc for the next revision.
As for the procfs_query.c, it's not really a test, rather a custom
testing/benchmarking tool convenient for development, so I think I'll
drop it from the patch set for the next revision (and maybe will put
it up in a separate repo on Github or something).

Can we please also add the vma_kernel_pagesize() to this interface? We
have a user who parses the entire smaps file specifically for
KernelPageSize, which could be included for a low cost here.
The only way to get this information today seems to be from the
/proc/<pid>/smaps file and it is necessary for certain hugepage calls
for alignment reasons (otherwise the calls fail with -EINVAL). Adding
this extra information would allow for another text-parsing user to
switch to this API.
Thanks,
