环境:gcc版本4.8.4(Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1〜14.04)
3.16.0-30-generiC#40〜14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 15 17:45:15 UTC 2015 i686 i686 i686 GNU
C代码a2.c:具有40MB的全局数组,并且每个项目都归为一类。
int b[10000000];//40M global array
void main() {
int i = 0;
for(i = 0; i<10000000; i++) {b[i]=i;}
while(1);
}
我建立像
gcc -o a2 a2.c
当我运行此代码并看到smap文件
cat /proc/25739/smaps
时,内容如下08048000-08049000 r-xp 00000000 08:11 46930087 /home/jzd/test/a2

为什么会这样呢?
最佳答案
您已启用对透明大页面(THP)的支持,并且可执行文件的BSS由大页面支持:
0804b000-0a670000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0

KernelPageSize: 4 kB
MMUPageSize: 4 kB

VmFlags: rd wr mr mw me ac
如果仔细观察,报告的
Pss
值2196 KiB恰好是由常规4 KiB页支持的匿名内存映射的数量,即Anonymous
和AnonHugePages
之间的差异。我的猜测是PSS中的THP记帐在3.16.0-30中被打破。在您的内核版本和@Evan内核的版本之间,有几次提交会影响Linux内核中生成
smaps
文件(fs/proc/task_mmu.c
)内容的部分,更具体地说,此更改between 3.18 and 3.19可能是固定的。
