[PATCH v3 05/16] mm: add MM_CP_UFFD_RWP change_protection() flag

Kiryl Shutsemau <[email protected]>
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-man,org.kernel.vger.kvm,org.kernel.vger.linux-doc,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel,org.kernel.vger.linux-kselftest,org.kvack.linux-mm
Message-ID <[email protected]>
From: "Kiryl Shutsemau (Meta)" <[email protected]>

Preparatory patch. Add the change_protection() primitive that
userfaultfd RWP will use.

An RWP-protected PTE is PAGE_NONE with the uffd PTE bit set. The
PROT_NONE half makes the CPU fault on any access; the uffd bit
distinguishes an RWP fault from a plain mprotect(PROT_NONE) or NUMA
hinting fault. MM_CP_UFFD_WP and MM_CP_UFFD_RWP share the same PTE
bit, so the two cannot be used together on the same range.

Two new change_protection() flags:

  MM_CP_UFFD_RWP            install PAGE_NONE and set the uffd bit
  MM_CP_UFFD_RWP_RESOLVE    restore vma->vm_page_prot, clear the uffd bit

Both are wired through change_pte_range(), change_huge_pmd(), and
hugetlb_change_protection() so anon, shmem, THP, and hugetlb all
share the same semantics.
