From: Shakeel Butt <shakeelb@xxxxxxxxxx>
A new uapi to lock the files on tmpfs in memory, to protect against swap
without mapping the files. This commit introduces two new commands to
fcntl and shmem: F_MEM_LOCK and F_MEM_UNLOCK. The locking will be
charged against RLIMIT_MEMLOCK of uid in namespace of the caller.
This feature is implemented by mostly re-using the shmctl's SHM_LOCK
mechanism (System V IPC shared memory). This api follows the design
choices of shmctl's SHM_LOCK and also of mlock2 syscall where pages
on swap are not populated on the syscall. The pages will be brought
to memory on first access.
As with System V shared memory, these pages are counted as Unevictable
in /proc/meminfo (when they are allocated, or when page reclaim finds
any allocated earlier), but they are not counted as Mlocked there.
For simplicity the locked files are forbidden to grow or shrink
to keep the user accounting simple. This design decision will be
revisited once such use-case arises.
The permissions to lock and unlock differs slightly from other similar
interfaces. Anyone having CAP_IPC_LOCK or remaining rlimit can lock
the file, but the unlocker has to have either CAP_IPC_LOCK or it
should be the locker itself.
This commit does not make the locked status of a tmpfs file visible.
We can add an F_MEM_LOCKED fcntl later, to query that status if
required; but it's not yet clear how best to make it visible.
