This is the next iteration of implementing fd-based (instead of vma-based) memory for KVM guests. If you want the full background of why we are doing this, please go read the v10 cover letter[1]. The biggest change from v10 is to implement the backing storage in KVM itself, and expose it via a KVM ioctl() instead of a "generic" sycall. See link[2] for details on why we pivoted to a KVM-specific approach. Key word is "biggest". Relative to v10, there are many big changes. Highlights below (I can't remember everything that got changed at this point). Tagged RFC as there are a lot of empty changelogs, and a lot of missing documentation. And ideally, we'll have even more tests before merging. There are also several gaps/opens (to be discussed in tomorrow's PUCK). v11: - Test private<=>shared conversions *without* doing fallocate() - PUNCH_HOLE all memory between iterations of the conversion test so that KVM doesn't retain pages in the guest_memfd - Rename hugepage control to be a very generic ALLOW_HUGEPAGE, instead of giving it a THP or PMD specific name. - Fold in fixes from a lot of people (thank you!) - Zap SPTEs *before* updating attributes to ensure no weirdness, e.g. if KVM handles a page fault and looks at inconsistent attributes - Refactor MMU interaction with attributes updates to reuse much of KVM's framework for mmu_notifiers.
