PG_balloon was introduced to implement page migration/compaction for
pages inflated in virtio-balloon. Nowadays, it is only a marker that a
page is part of virtio-balloon and therefore logically offline.
We also want to make use of this flag in other balloon drivers - for
inflated pages or when onlining a section but keeping some pages offline
(e.g. used right now by XEN and Hyper-V via set_online_page_callback()).
We are going to expose this flag to dump tools like makedumpfile. But
instead of exposing PG_balloon, let's generalize the concept of marking
pages as logically offline, so it can be reused for other purposes later
on.
Rename PG_balloon to PG_offline. This is an indicator that the page is
logically offline, the content stale and that it should not be touched
(e.g. a hypervisor would have to allocate backing storage in order for
the guest to dump an unused page). We can then e.g. exclude such pages
from dumps.
We replace and reuse KPF_BALLOON (23), as this shouldn't really harm
(and for now the semantics stay the same). In following patches, we
will make use of this bit also in other balloon drivers. While at it,
document PGTABLE.

Because kpagecount_read() fakes success if map counts are not being

Add a new flag that will read kpagecount for each PFN and print out the
number of times the page is mapped along with the flags in the listing
view.
This information is useful in understanding and optimizing memory usage.
Identifying pages which are not shared allows us to focus on adjusting
the memory layout or access patterns for the sole owning process.
Knowing the number of processes that share a page tells us how many
other times we must make the same adjustments or how many processes to
potentially disable.

use as page tables. This can be helpful when debugging crashdumps or
analysing memory fragmentation. Add a KPF flag to report these pages to
userspace and update page-types.c to interpret that flag.
Note that only pages currently accounted as NR_PAGETABLES are tracked as

page-types currently hardcodes /proc/kpageflags as the file to parse.
This works when using the tool to examine the state of pageflags on the
same system, but does not allow storing a snapshot of pageflags at a
given time to debug issues nor on a different system.
This allows the user to specify a saved version of kpageflags with a new

Most of time is spent in memset(). Currently memset() clears over whole
buffer for every walk_pfn() call, which is inefficient when walk_pfn()
is called from walk_vma(), because in that case walk_pfn() is called for
each pfn. So this patch limits the zero initialization only for the
first element.

This patch sets bit 56 in pagemap if this page is mapped only once. It
allows to detect exclusively used pages without exposing PFN:
present file exclusive state
0 0 0 non-present
1 1 0 file page mapped somewhere else
1 1 1 file page mapped only here
1 0 0 anon non-CoWed page (shared with parent/child)
1 0 1 anon CoWed page (or never forked)
CoWed pages in (MAP_FILE | MAP_PRIVATE) areas are anon in this context.
MMap-exclusive bit doesn't reflect potential page-sharing via swapcache:
page could be mapped once but has several swap-ptes which point to it.
Application could detect that by swap bit in pagemap entry and touch that
pte via /proc/pid/mem to get real information.

After this patch 'page-types' can walk over a file's mappings and
analyze populated page cache pages mostly without disturbing its state.
It maps chunk of file, marks VMA as MADV_RANDOM to turn off readahead,
pokes VMA via mincore() to determine cached pages, triggers page-fault
only for them, and finally gathers information via pagemap/kpageflags.
Before unmap it marks VMA as MADV_SEQUENTIAL for ignoring reference
bits.
usage: page-types -f <path>
If <path> is directory it will analyse all files in all subdirectories.
Symlinks are not followed as well as mount points. Hardlinks aren't
handled, they'll be dumped as many times as they are found. Recursive
walk brings all dentries into dcache and populates page cache of
block-devices aka 'Buffers'.
Probably it's worth to add ioctl for dumping file page cache as array of
PFNs as a replacement for this hackish juggling with
mmap/madvise/mincore/pagemap. Also recursive walk could be replaced
with dumping cached inodes via some ioctl or debugfs interface followed
by openning them via open_by_handle_at, this would fix hardlinks
handling and unneeded population of dcache and buffers. This interface
might be used as data source for constructing readahead plans and for
background optimizations of actively used files.

Soft dirty bit allows us to track which pages are written since the last
clear_ref (by "echo 4 > /proc/pid/clear_refs".) This is useful for
userspace applications to know their memory footprints.
Note that the kernel exposes this flag via bit[55] of /proc/pid/pagemap,
and the semantics is not a default one (scheduled to be the default in the
near future.) However, it shifts to the new semantics at the first
clear_ref, and the users of soft dirty bit always do it before utilizing
the bit, so that's not a big deal. Users must avoid relying on the bit in
page-types before the first clear_ref.

page-flags.c had some older version of debugfs_mount copied from perf so
convert it to using the version in the tools library.

Compiling page-type.c with a recent compiler produces many warnings,
mostly related to signed/unsigned comparisons. This patch cleans up most
of them.
One remaining warning is about an unused parameter. The <compiler.h> file
doesn't define a __unused macro (or the like) yet. This can be addressed
later.

Programs using /proc/kpageflags need to know about the various flags. The
<linux/kernel-page-flags.h> provides them and the comments in the file
indicate that it is supposed to be used by user-level code. But the file
is not installed.
Install the headers and mark the unstable flags as out-of-bounds. The
page-type tool is also adjusted to not duplicate the definitions

tools/ is the better place for vm tools which are used by many people.
Moving them to tools also make them open to more users instead of hide in
Documentation folder.
This patch moves page-types.c to tools/vm/page-types.c. Also add a
Makefile in tools/vm and fix two coding style problems: a) change const
arrary to 'const char * const', b) change a space to tab for indent.
