Patch series "userfaultfd tmpfs/hugetlbfs/non-cooperative", v2 These userfaultfd features are finished and are ready for larger exposure in -mm and upstream merging. 1) tmpfs non present userfault 2) hugetlbfs non present userfault 3) non cooperative userfault for fork/madvise/mremap qemu development code is already exercising 2) and container postcopy live migration needs 3). 1) is not currently used but there's a self test and we know some qemu user for various reasons uses tmpfs as backing for KVM so it'll need it too to use postcopy live migration with tmpfs memory. All review feedback from the previous submit has been handled and the fixes are included. There's no outstanding issue AFIK. Upstream code just did a s/fe/vmf/ conversion in the page faults and this has been converted as well incrementally. In addition to the previous submits, this also wakes up stuck userfaults during UFFDIO_UNREGISTER. The non cooperative testcase actually reproduced this problem by getting stuck instead of quitting clean in some rare case as it could call UFFDIO_UNREGISTER while some userfault could be still in flight. The other option would have been to keep leaving it up to userland to serialize itself and to patch the testcase instead but the wakeup during unregister I think is preferable. David also asked the UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS and UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_SHMEM feature flags to be added so QEMU can avoid to probe if the hugetlbfs/shmem missing support is available by calling UFFDIO_REGISTER. QEMU already checks HUGETLBFS_MAGIC with fstatfs so if UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS is also set, it knows UFFDIO_REGISTER will succeed (or if it fails, it's for some other more concerning reason). There's no reason to worry about adding too many feature flags. There are 64 available and worst case we've to bump the API if someday we're really going to run out of them. The round-trip network latency of hugetlbfs userfaults during postcopy live migration is still of the order of dozen milliseconds on 10GBit if at 2MB hugepage granularity so it's working perfectly and it should provide for higher bandwidth or lower CPU usage (which makes it interesting to add an option in the future to support THP granularity too for anonymous memory, UFFDIO_COPY would then have to create THP if alignment/len allows for it). 1GB hugetlbfs granularity will require big changes in hugetlbfs to work so it's deferred for later. This patch (of 42): This adds proper documentation (inline) to avoid the risk of further misunderstandings about the semantics of _IOW/_IOR and it also reminds whoever will bump the UFFDIO_API in the future, to change the two ioctl to _IOW. This was found while implementing strace support for those ioctl, otherwise we could have never found it by just reviewing kernel code and testing it. _IOC_READ or _IOC_WRITE alters nothing but the ioctl number itself, so it's only worth fixing if the UFFDIO_API is bumped someday.
