Unlike mprotect, this doesn't split/merge vmas. [peterx@xxxxxxxxxx: - use the helper to find VMA; - return -ENOENT if not found to match mcopy case; - use the new MM_CP_UFFD_WP* flags for change_protection - check against mmap_changing for failures - replace find_dst_vma with vma_find_uffd] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200220163112.11409-13-peterx@xxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Peter Xu <peterx@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Jerome Glisse <jglisse@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Kirill A.
