The gap grows with memory Right. spanned includes the holes. So don't pass them. /sys/devices/system/memory/ has memoryN only for present blocks. /sys/devices/system/node/nodeN/ links to the blocks of that node. /proc/iomem has "System RAM" ranges. 523024 pages in a 32G node looks like 64K pages. Then the whole 256G box is 4M pfns. When a hole is passed anyway the call ends at !online_section() in pfn_to_online_page(). /proc/kpageflags does that plus put_user() for every pfn, holes included. Syscall progs run under migrate_disable() only. > front. The spanned of this node is already 17.23M, so a single bpf_for > cannot cover it; you have to split it into N chunks and poll, with the > chunking state kept in a prog map, i.e. a loop nested in a loop. The loop over chunks is in user space. One bpf_prog_test_run_opts() per range with start and nr in ctx_in. No map, no nested loop. > for 52-bit PA. A 32-bit PFN range will overflow here. The snippet was: bpf_for(i, 0, ctx->nr) { pfn = ctx->start + i; i is an offset within the chunk. start and pfn are 64-bit. > Solving all of this requires yet another, more complex kfunc—and it > looks increasingly like bpf iter. So why not just use the iter? Nothing of the above needs kernel code. v3 is +474 -83 lines on the kernel side. The diff I sent is +55 -1 and it doesn't touch the debugfs path.
