一、vm_area_struct 结构体成员分析

---

vm_area_struct 结构体中相关成员解析 :

• unsigned long vm_start 成员 : 虚拟内存空间 起始地址 ;

	unsigned long vm_start;		/* Our start address within vm_mm. */

• unsigned long vm_end 成员 : 虚拟内存空间 终止地址 后的 第一个字节 ;

	unsigned long vm_end;		/* The first byte after our end address
					   within vm_mm. */

• struct vm_area_struct *vm_next 成员 : 是 vm_area_struct 链表中 , 本元素之后的链表元素 ;
• struct vm_area_struct *vm_prev 成员 : 是 vm_area_struct 链表中 , 本元素之前的链表元素 ;

	/* linked list of VM areas per task, sorted by address */
	struct vm_area_struct *vm_next, *vm_prev;

• struct rb_node vm_rb 成员 : 红黑树 数据结构 , 将 vm_area_struct 作为叶子节点 插入到 红黑树 中 , 能 提高 搜索效率 ; 每个进程对应的 " 虚拟内存空间 " mm_struct 都会创建一个 红黑树 数据结构 , 该结构中的元素就是 vm_area_struct 结构体 ;

	struct rb_node vm_rb;

vm_area_struct 结构体源码 :

/*
 * This struct defines a memory VMM memory area. There is one of these
 * per VM-area/task.  A VM area is any part of the process virtual memory
 * space that has a special rule for the page-fault handlers (ie a shared
 * library, the executable area etc).
 */
struct vm_area_struct 
	/* The first cache line has the info for VMA tree walking. */

	unsigned long vm_start;		/* Our start address within vm_mm. */
	unsigned long vm_end;		/* The first byte after our end address
					   within vm_mm. */

	/* linked list of VM areas per task, sorted by address */
	struct vm_area_struct *vm_next, *vm_prev;

	struct rb_node vm_rb;

	/*
	 * Largest free memory gap in bytes to the left of this VMA.
	 * Either between this VMA and vma->vm_prev, or between one of the
	 * VMAs below us in the VMA rbtree and its ->vm_prev. This helps
	 * get_unmapped_area find a free area of the right size.
	 */
	unsigned long rb_subtree_gap;

	/* Second cache line starts here. */

	struct mm_struct *vm_mm;	/* The address space we belong to. */
	pgprot_t vm_page_prot;		/* Access permissions of this VMA. */
	unsigned long vm_flags;		/* Flags, see mm.h. */

	/*
	 * For areas with an address space and backing store,
	 * linkage into the address_space->i_mmap interval tree.
	 */

		unsigned long rb_subtree_last;
	 shared;

	 * A file's MAP_PRIVATE vma can be in both i_mmap tree and anon_vma
	 * list, after a COW of one of the file pages.	A MAP_SHARED vma

	 * or brk vma (with NULL file) can only be in an anon_vma list.
