[PATCH] userfaultfd: non-cooperative: add madvise() event for MADV_FREE request

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

 



MADV_FREE is identical to MADV_DONTNEED from the point of view of uffd
monitor. The monitor has to stop handling #PF events in the range being
freed. We are reusing userfaultfd_remove callback along with the logic
required to re-get and re-validate the VMA which may change or disappear
because userfaultfd_remove releases mmap_sem.
