Purpose
The following examples demonstrates how to map a driver allocated buffer from kernel into user space. It has been tested with Linux kernel 2.2.18 and 2.4.0 on Intel (uni processor only) and Alpha platform (COMPAQ Personal Workstation 500au (uni processor), DS20 and ES40 (SMP).
Memory Mappings
The Linux kernel works with different memory mappings. One mapping, called kernel virtual mapping provides a direct 1 to 1 mapping of physical addresses to virtual addresses. Conversion between physical and virtual addresses can be made with phys_to_virt() and virt_to_phys() for the translation virtual to physical.
The translation from IO bus addresses into kernel virtual addresses uses also the kernel virutal mapping. An contiguous address area in the kernel segment is also contigous in physical memory.
Memory Allocation in the Kernel
kmalloc() returns a memory area in the kernel virtual mapping. Therefore, the area is physical contigous, and can be translated to a physical address with virt_to_phys() or to a IO bus address with virt_to_bus().
vmalloc() creates a new memory area, puts several physically non-contigous pages into the area and enters the new area into the memory map of the kernel. Such addresses cannot be converted into physical or IO bus addresses with the functions described above.
Translation Virtual to Kernel Virtual Address
Before translating into a physical address or into a IO bus address, a general kernel virtual address, e.g. returned by vmalloc(), must be converted to a kernel virtual address. This can be achieved e.g. with the following steps:
* Check whether the address is already in the kernel virtual mapping
On Linux 2.2.x the direct kernel virtual mapping starts just at the begin of the kernels memory space (i.e. starting at PAGE_OFFSET). The pageframe number can be derived using the MAP_NR macro. The variable max_mapnr identifies the highest available pageframe. Therefore if MAP_NR(address) is smaller than max_mapnr the address is part of the direct kernel virtual mapping:
if (MAP_NR(address) < max_mapnr)
Linux > 2.2.x supports more physical memory than the virtual address space can cover, and supports physical memory layouts with holes in it. Therefore we cannot just compare with a maximum pageframe number. In our example we treat addresses already in the direct kernel virtual mapping the same way as other pages.
* Linux has a three level page table. We need to make three lookups therefore:
o page directory
For the lookup of the page directory we need to know which memory map we want to look at and the address. For a general lookup we can use pgd_offset(), for a lookup in the kernel memory map we use the macro pgd_offset_k
o page middle directory
With the page directory pointer we lookup the page middle directory. Before doing so, we need to validate whether the page directory has a valid entry. Assuming pgd is our page directory pointer, we can check the entry with:
if (!pgd_none(*pgd))
The lookup finally is done with pmd = pmd_offset(pgd, address)
o page table
The page middle directory pointer needs to be checked as well. The lookup is done with ptep = pte_offset(pmd, address)
* ptep contains now a pointer to a page table entry. Whether the entry contains a page can be checked with pte_present(*ptep)
* On Linux 2.2.x pte_page(*ptep) returns us the kernel virtual address of the corresponding page table entry.
On Linux 2.4.x pte_page(*ptep) returns us the pointer to a page structure. The kernel virtual address of the page is read out of the page structure with page_address()
Note: the function performs the translation for the *one* page, where address is in. Since vmalloc'd areas do not have to be physical contigous, the next page may have a complete different offset!
Note: the parsing of the page table as described above works when they do not change during the parsing. For memory areas allocated with vmalloc() this is the case. If you want to translate an address belong to a process which can get swapped out, you need to protect the code with the corresponding locks. See e.g. sys_mlock() how this can be done.
Mapping Kernel Virtual Addresses into User Space
2.2 and 2.4 Kernel
Mapping addresses which are in the kernel virtual mapping into user space is straight foreward:
* Implement a mmap method for your driver
* Set the reserved bit on the pages you are mapping into user space
* set the VM_LOCKED flag on your memory area. This will prevent the swapper fromm swapping the pages out:
vma->flags |= VM_LOCKED
* Call remap_page_range() to map the physical address of your buffer to the user space address
Example:
vma->flags |= VM_LOCKED;
if (remap_page_range(vma->vm_start,
virt_to_phys((void*)((unsigned long)kmalloc_area)),
size,
PAGE_SHARED))
{
printk(\"remap page range failed\\n\");
return -ENXIO;
}
Note: on Linux 2.4.x remap_page_range() needs to be called with the mm semaphore hold. The semaphore is grabed by the syscall, so within your mmap method you are safe. If you call remap_page_range in other contexts, you need to grab the semaphore first (e.g. down(¤t->mm->mmap_sem)).
2.6 Kernel
On 2.6 things got even simpler. The remap_pfn_range function sets the correct flags in the vm_area. remap_pfn_range can be called for a set of physically contiguous pages. Do map the pages you therefore have to:
* Implement a mmap method for your driver
* Set the reserved bit on the pages you are mapping into user space
* Call remap_pfn_range to map your buffer into user space
Example:
if (remap_pfn_range(vma,
vma->vm_start,
virt_to_phys((void *)kmalloc_area) >> PAGE_SHIFT,
size,
vma->vm_page_prot)) < 0) {
printk(\"remap_pfn_range failed\\n\");
return -EIO;
}
The arguments of the remap_pfn_range function are:
* vma: vm_area_struct has passed to the mmap method
* vma->vm_start: start of mapping user address space
* virt_to_phys((void *)kmalloc_area) >> PAGE_SHIFT: page frame number of first page
* size: length of mapping in bytes
* vma->>vm_page_prot: protection bits, here passed along received from application
Mapping non-kernel Virtual Addresses into User Space
Mapping addresses e.g. returned by vmalloc() into user space is a little bit more tricky, since each page has a different address translation.
A very elegant method to create such mappings is the usage of the nopage method of the virtual memory area functions. The methods are attached to the virtual memory area in the mmap method of the device. Each time than the user space process accesses a page that has not yet been translated, a page fault occurs and our nopage handler is called. The nopage handler has to increment the usage count of the page. On Linux 2.2.x it has to return the kernel virtual address of the page the application wants to access, on Linux 2.4.x it has to return the pointer to the page structure.
Example for a nopage handler:
Note: virt_to_kseg() is an implementation of the function described above to parse the page table.
/* page fault handler (for Linux 2.2.x) */
unsigned long mmap_drv_vmmap(struct vm_area_struct *vma, unsigned long address, int no_share)
{
unsigned long offset;
unsigned long virt_addr;
/* determine the offset within the vmalloc'd area */
offset = address - vma->vm_start + vma->vm_offset;
/* calculate the kseg virtual address */
virt_addr = (unsigned long)virt_to_kseg(&vmalloc_area[offset/sizeof(int)]);
/* increment the usage count of the page */
atomic_inc(&mem_map[MAP_NR(virt_addr)].count);
printk(\"mmap_drv: page fault for offset 0x%lx (kseg x%lx)\\n\",
offset, virt_addr);
/* return the kseg virtual address, *not* the physical address as stated
in some wrong examples.
*/
return(virt_addr);
}
2.6 Kernel
On 2.6 there is no need for a driver specific page fault handler since remap_pfn_range can be called for every page individually. To map a vmalloc'd area you simply have to loop over all pages and call remap_pfn_range:
while (length > 0) {
pfn = vmalloc_to_pfn(vmalloc_area_ptr);
if ((ret = remap_pfn_range(vma, start, pfn, PAGE_SIZE,
PAGE_SHARED)) < 0) {
return ret;
}
start += PAGE_SIZE;
vmalloc_area_ptr += PAGE_SIZE;
length -= PAGE_SIZE;
}
Setting the Reserved Bit
Before a page can be exported into user space, the reserved bit must be set. This is done on Linux 2.2.x with e.g.:
mem_map_reserve(MAP_NR(virt_to_kseg((void *)virt_addr))) Note: mem_map_reserve() (and its counterpart mem_map_unreserve()) take the map number of the page as argument. The map number is calculated out of the kernel virtual address with the MAP_NR() macro.
On Linux 2.4.x mem_map_reserve() takes a pointer to a page structure as argument. The page structure pointer is derived from the kernel virtual address with virt_to_page().
Putting the Parts together
The example below shows a device driver, that allocates two memory area: one with vmalloc(), the other with kmalloc(). It implements both mapping methods described above to export the memory to user space.
Please read the explanations in the example program source code on how to run the test program.
Linux 2.6 Device Driver
With Linux 2.6 a new build process is used. This and the amount of changes made me split the example from the 2.2 and 2.4 code. Please download it from here.
A pure BSD licensed version of the code can be fetched from here.
