[PATCH v18 43/80] c/r: dump anonymous- and file-mapped- shared memory

Oren Laadan
2009-09-24T00:42:28Z

We now handle anonymous and file-mapped shared memory. Support for IPC
shared memory requires support for IPC first. We extend ckpt_write_vma()
to detect shared memory VMAs and handle it separately than private
memory.

There is not much to do for file-mapped shared memory, except to force
msync() on the region to ensure that the file system is consistent
with the checkpoint image. Use our internal type CKPT_VMA_SHM_FILE.

Anonymous shared memory is always backed by inode in shmem filesystem.
We use that inode to look up the VMA in the objhash and register it if
not found (on first encounter). In this case, the type of the VMA is
CKPT_VMA_SHM_ANON, and we dump the contents. On the other hand, if it is
found there, we must have already saved it before, so we change the
type to CKPT_VMA_SHM_ANON_SKIP and skip it.

To dump the contents of a shmem VMA, we loop through the pages of the
inode in the shmem filesystem, and dump the contents of each dirty
(allocated) page - unallocated pages must be clean.

Note that we save the original size of a shmem VMA because it may have
been re-mapped partially. The format itself remains like with private
VMAs, except that instead of addresses we record _indices_ (page nr)
into the backing inode.

Changelog[v18]:
- Mark the backing file as visited at chekcpoint
