In order to identify the type of memory a process has pinned through its open fds, add the file path to fdinfo output. This allows identifying memory types based on common prefixes. e.g. "/memfd...", "/dmabuf...", "/dev/ashmem...".
Access to /proc/<pid>/fdinfo is governed by PTRACE_MODE_READ_FSCREDS the same as /proc/<pid>/maps which also exposes the file path of mappings; so the security permissions for accessing path is consistent with that of /proc/<pid>/maps.
Hi Kalesh,
Hi Stephen,
Thanks for taking a look.
I think I see the value in the size field, but I'm curious about path, which is available via readlink /proc/<pid>/fd/<n>, since those are symlinks to the file themselves.
This could work if we are root, but the file permissions wouldn't allow us to do the readlink on other processes otherwise. We want to be able to capture the system state in production environments from some trusted process with ptrace read capability.
Interesting, thanks for explaining. It seems weird to have a duplicate interface for the same information but such is life.
Yeah, the size change is really straight forward but for this one I'm not 100% sure either.
Probably best to ping some core fs developer before going further with it.
BTW: Any preferred branch to push this upstream? If not I can take it through drm-misc-next.
Regards, Christian.
File paths can contain fun characters like newlines or colons, which could make parsing out filenames in this text file... fun. How would your userspace parsing logic handle "/home/stephen/filename\nsize:\t4096"? The readlink(2) API makes that easy already.
I think since we have escaped the "\n" (seq_file_path(m, file, "\n")),
I really should have read through that function before commenting, thanks for teaching me something new :)
Stephen
then user space might parse this line like:
if (strncmp(line, "path:\t", 6) == 0) char* path = line + 6;
Thanks, Kalesh
Is the goal avoiding races (e.g. file descriptor 3 is closed and reopened to a different path between reading fdinfo and stating the fd)?

Changes from rfc:
- Split adding 'size' and 'path' into a separate patches, per Christian
- Fix indentation (use tabs) in documentaion, per Randy
