There are a number of "core" VMA manipulation functions implemented in
mm/mmap.c, notably those concerning VMA merging, splitting, modifying,
expanding and shrinking, which logically don't belong there.
More importantly this functionality represents an internal implementation
detail of memory management and should not be exposed outside of mm/
itself.
This patch series isolates core VMA manipulation functionality into its own
file, mm/vma.c, and provides an API to the rest of the mm code in mm/vma.h.
Importantly, it also carefully implements mm/vma_internal.h, which
specifies which headers need to be imported by vma.c, leading to the very
useful property that vma.c depends only on mm/vma.h and mm/vma_internal.h.
This is useful, because we can then re-implement vma_internal.h in
userland, stubbing out and adding shims for kernel mechanisms as required,
and then can directly and very easily unit test internal VMA functionality.
This patch series takes advantage of existing shim logic and full userland
maple tree support contained in tools/testing/radix-tree/ and
tools/include/linux/, separating out shared components of the radix tree
implementation to provide this testing.
Kernel functionality is stubbed and shimmed as needed in tools/testing/vma/
which contains a fully functional userland vma_internal.h file and which
imports mm/vma.c and mm/vma.h to be directly tested from userland.
A simple, skeleton testing implementation is provided in
tools/testing/vma/main.c as a proof-of-concept, asserting that simple VMA
merge, modify (testing split), expand and shrink functionality works
correctly.
Lorenzo Stoakes (7):
userfaultfd: move core VMA manipulation logic to mm/userfaultfd.c
mm: move vma_modify() and helpers to internal header
mm: unexport vma_expand() / vma_shrink()
mm: move internal core VMA manipulation functions to own file
MAINTAINERS: Add entry for new VMA files
tools: separate out shared radix-tree components
tools: add skeleton code for userland testing of VMA logic
