[v3,0/5] mm: userfaultfd: refactor and add UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP

Message

Axel Rasmussen March 6, 2023, 10:50 p.m. UTC

This series, currently based on 6.3-rc1, is divided into two parts:

- Commits 1-4 refactor userfaultfd ioctl code without behavior changes, with the
  main goal of improving consistency and reducing the number of function args.
- Commit 5 adds UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP.

The refactors are sorted by increasing controversial-ness, the idea being we
could drop some of the refactors if they are deemed not worth it.

Changelog:

v2->v3:
 - rebase onto 6.3-rc1
 - typedef a new type for mfill flags in patch 3/5 (suggested by Nadav)

v1->v2:
 - refactor before adding the new flag, to avoid perpetuating messiness

Axel Rasmussen (5):
  mm: userfaultfd: rename functions for clarity + consistency
  mm: userfaultfd: don't pass around both mm and vma
  mm: userfaultfd: combine 'mode' and 'wp_copy' arguments
  mm: userfaultfd: don't separate addr + len arguments
  mm: userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP to install WP PTEs
