背景

  • Read the fucking source code! --By 鲁迅
  • A picture is worth a thousand words. --By 高尔基

说明:

  1. Kernel版本:4.14
  2. ARM64处理器,Contex-A53,双核
  3. 使用工具:Source Insight 3.5, Visio

1. 概述

这篇文章,让我们来看看用户态进程的地址空间情况,主要会包括以下:

  • vma;
  • malloc;
  • mmap;

进程地址空间中,我们常见的代码段,数据段,bss段等,实际上都是一段地址空间区域。Linux将地址空间中的区域称为Virtual Memory Area, 简称VMA,使用struct vm_area_struct来描述。

在进行内存申请和映射时,都会去地址空间中申请一段虚拟地址区域,而这部分操作也与vma关系密切,因此本文将vma/malloc/mmap三个放到一块来进行分析。
开启探索之旅吧。

2. 数据结构

主要涉及两个结构体:struct mm_structstruct vm_area_struct

  • struct mm_struct
    用于描述与进程地址空间有关的全部信息,这个结构也包含在进程描述符中,关键字段的描述见注释。

关系图来了:

是不是有点眼熟?这个跟内核中的vmap机制很类似。

宏观的看一下进程地址空间中的各个VMA
技术图片

针对VMA的操作,有如下接口:

/*  VMA的查找 */
/* Look up the first VMA which satisfies  addr < vm_end,  NULL if none. */
extern struct vm_area_struct * find_vma(struct mm_struct * mm, unsigned long addr); //查找第一个满足addr < vm_end的VMA块
extern struct vm_area_struct * find_vma_prev(struct mm_struct * mm, unsigned long addr,
                         struct vm_area_struct **pprev); //与find_vma功能类似,不同之处在于还会返回VMA链接的前一个VMA;
 static inline struct vm_area_struct * find_vma_intersection(struct mm_struct * mm, unsigned long start_addr, unsigned long end_addr); //查找与start_addr~end_addr区域有交集的VMA
 
 /* VMA的插入 */
 extern int insert_vm_struct(struct mm_struct *, struct vm_area_struct *); //插入VMA到红黑树中和链表中
 
 /* VMA的合并 */
 extern struct vm_area_struct *vma_merge(struct mm_struct *,
    struct vm_area_struct *prev, unsigned long addr, unsigned long end,
    unsigned long vm_flags, struct anon_vma *, struct file *, pgoff_t,
    struct mempolicy *, struct vm_userfaultfd_ctx); //将VMA与附近的VMA进行融合操作
 
 /* VMA的拆分 */
 extern int split_vma(struct mm_struct *, struct vm_area_struct *,
    unsigned long addr, int new_below); //将VMA以addr为界线分成两个VMA

上述的操作基本上也就是针对红黑树的操作。

3. malloc

malloc大家都很熟悉,那么它是怎么与底层去交互并申请到内存的呢?

图来了:
技术图片

如图所示,malloc最终会调到底层的sys_brk函数和sys_mmap函数,在分配小内存时调用sys_brk函数,动态的调整进程地址空间中的brk位置;在分配大块内存时,调用sys_mmap函数,在堆和栈之间找到一片区域进行映射处理。

先来看sys_brk函数,通过SYSCALL_DEFINE1来定义,整体的函数调用流程如下:

技术图片

从函数的调用过程中可以看出有不少操作是针对vma的,那么结合起来的效果图如下:

技术图片

整个过程看起来就比较清晰和简单了,每个进程都用struct mm_struct来描述自身的进程地址空间,这些空间都是一些vma区域,通过一个红黑树和链表来管理。因此针对malloc的处理,会去动态的调整brk的位置,具体的大小则由struct vm_area_struct结构中的vm_start ~ vm_end来指定。在实际过程中,会根据请求分配区域是否与现有vma重叠的情况来进行处理,或者重新申请一个vma来描述这段区域,并最终插入到红黑树和链表中。

完成这段申请后,只是开辟了一段区域,通常还不会立马分配物理内存,物理内存的分配会发生在访问时出现缺页异常后再处理,这个后续也会有文章来进一步分析。

4. mmap

mmap用于内存映射,也就是将一段区域映射到自己的进程地址空间中,分为两种:

  • 文件映射: 将文件区域映射到进程空间,文件存放在存储设备上;
  • 匿名映射:没有文件对应的区域映射,内容存放在物理内存上;

同时,针对其他进程是否可见,又分为两种:

  • 私有映射:将数据源拷贝副本,不影响其他进程;
  • 共享映射:共享的进程都能看到;

根据排列组合,就存在以下几种情况了:

  1. 私有匿名映射: 通常分配大块内存时使用,堆,栈,bss段等;
  2. 共享匿名映射:常用于父子进程间通信,在内存文件系统中创建/dev/zero设备;
  3. 私有文件映射:常用的比如动态库加载,代码段,数据段等;
  4. 共享文件映射:常用于进程间通信,文件读写等;

常见的prot权限和flags如下:

#define PROT_READ   0x1     /* page can be read */
#define PROT_WRITE  0x2     /* page can be written */
#define PROT_EXEC   0x4     /* page can be executed */
#define PROT_SEM    0x8     /* page may be used for atomic ops */
#define PROT_NONE   0x0     /* page can not be accessed */
#define PROT_GROWSDOWN  0x01000000  /* mprotect flag: extend change to start of growsdown vma */
#define PROT_GROWSUP    0x02000000  /* mprotect flag: extend change to end of growsup vma */

#define MAP_SHARED  0x01        /* Share changes */
#define MAP_PRIVATE 0x02        /* Changes are private */
#define MAP_TYPE    0x0f        /* Mask for type of mapping */
#define MAP_FIXED   0x10        /* Interpret addr exactly */
#define MAP_ANONYMOUS   0x20        /* don't use a file */

#define MAP_GROWSDOWN   0x0100      /* stack-like segment */
#define MAP_DENYWRITE   0x0800      /* ETXTBSY */
#define MAP_EXECUTABLE  0x1000      /* mark it as an executable */
#define MAP_LOCKED  0x2000      /* pages are locked */
#define MAP_NORESERVE   0x4000      /* don't check for reservations */
#define MAP_POPULATE    0x8000      /* populate (prefault) pagetables */
#define MAP_NONBLOCK    0x10000     /* do not block on IO */
#define MAP_STACK   0x20000     /* give out an address that is best suited for process/thread stacks */
#define MAP_HUGETLB 0x40000     /* create a huge page mapping */

mmap的操作,最终会调用到do_mmap函数,最后来一张调用图:
