[PATCH v6 1/8] mm: Introduce memfile_notifier

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch introduces memfile_notifier facility so existing memory file
subsystems (e.g. tmpfs/hugetlbfs) can provide memory pages to allow a
third kernel component to make use of memory bookmarked in the memory
file and gets notified when the pages in the memory file become
allocated/invalidated.

It will be used for KVM to use a file descriptor as the guest memory
backing store and KVM will use this memfile_notifier interface to
interact with memory file subsystems. In the future there might be other
consumers (e.g. VFIO with encrypted device memory).

It consists below components:
 - memfile_backing_store: Each supported memory file subsystem can be
   implemented as a memory backing store which bookmarks memory and
   provides callbacks for other kernel systems (memfile_notifier
   consumers) to interact with.
 - memfile_notifier: memfile_notifier consumers defines callbacks and
   associate them to a file using memfile_register_notifier().
 - memfile_node: A memfile_node is associated with the file (inode) from
   the backing store and includes feature flags and a list of registered
   memfile_notifier for notifying.

Userspace is in charge of guest memory lifecycle: it first allocates
pages in memory backing store and then passes the fd to KVM and lets KVM
register memory slot to memory backing store via memfile_register_notifier.
