Folio size can be calculated using the Compound Order, but of course, it can also be shown directly as a result. >> Page PFN: 0x12682c >> Page Physical: 0x12682c000 >> Page Virtual: 0xffff88812682c000 >> Page Refcount: 37 >> Page Mapcount: 7 >> Page Index: 0x0 >> Page Memcg Data: 0xffff88812642c000 >> Memcg Name: init.scope >> Memcg Path: /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/init.scope >> Page Mapping: 0xffff88810f086a70 >> Page Anon/File: File >> Page VMA: 0xffff88810e4af3b8 >> VMA Start: 0x7f43df5ac000 >> VMA End: 0x7f43df5b0000 >> This page is part of a compound page. >> This page is the head page of a compound page. >> Head Page: 0xffffea00049a0b00 >> Compound Order: 2 >> Number of Pages: 4 >> >> Signed-off-by: Ye Liu <[email protected]> >> >> Changes in v3: >> - Adjust display style. >> - Link to v2:https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/ >> >> Changes in v2: >> - Move the show_page_info.py file to tools/mm. >> - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/ >> --- >> MAINTAINERS | 5 ++ >> tools/mm/show_page_info.py | 120 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ >> 2 files changed, 125 insertions(+) >> create mode 100755 tools/mm/show_page_info.py >> >> diff --git a/MAINTAINERS b/MAINTAINERS >> index 17ed0b5ffdd2..85686a30dc72 100644 >> --- a/MAINTAINERS >> +++ b/MAINTAINERS >> @@ -18351,6 +18351,11 @@ F: Documentation/mm/page_table_check.rst >> F: include/linux/page_table_check.h >> F: mm/page_table_check.c >> >> +PAGE STATE DEBUG SCRIPT >> +M: Ye Liu <[email protected]> >> +S: Maintained >> +F: tools/mm/show_page_info.py >> + >> PANASONIC LAPTOP ACPI EXTRAS DRIVER >> M: Kenneth Chan <[email protected]> >> L: [email protected] >> diff --git a/tools/mm/show_page_info.py b/tools/mm/show_page_info.py >> new file mode 100755 >> index 000000000000..8622c5499dfe >> --- /dev/null >> +++ b/tools/mm/show_page_info.py > [...] >> +def main(): >> + """Main function to parse arguments and display page state.""" >> + parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description=DESC, formatter_class=argparse.RawTextHelpFormatter) >> + parser.add_argument('pid', metavar='PID', type=int, help='Target process ID (PID)') >> + parser.add_argument('vaddr', metavar='VADDR', type=str, help='Target virtual address in hexadecimal format (e.g., 0x7fff1234abcd)') >> + args = parser.parse_args() >> + >> + try: >> + vaddr = int(args.vaddr, 16) >> + except ValueError: >> + print(f"Error: Invalid virtual address format: {args.vaddr}") >> + return >> + >> + task = find_task(args.pid) >> + mm = task.mm >> + page = follow_page(mm, vaddr) > I tried this script on my test machine and got the below error: > > $ cat ./a.c > #include <stdio.h> > > int main(void) > { > int foo; > printf("hello\n"); > printf("%x\n", &foo); To avoid address truncation, you can use the %p format specifier instead of %x or %lx when printing a pointer (memory address).
