Subject: [PATCH 00/16] mm: Introduce MAP_BELOW_HINT
Some applications rely on placing data in free bits addresses allocated
by mmap. Various architectures (eg. x86, arm64, powerpc) restrict the
address returned by mmap to be less than the maximum address space,
unless the hint address is greater than this value.
On arm64 this barrier is at 52 bits and on x86 it is at 56 bits. This
flag allows applications a way to specify exactly how many bits they
want to be left unused by mmap. This eliminates the need for
applications to know the page table hierarchy of the system to be able
to reason which addresses mmap will be allowed to return.
---
riscv made this feature of mmap returning addresses less than the hint
address the default behavior. This was in contrast to the implementation
of x86/arm64 that have a single boundary at the 5-level page table
region. However this restriction proved too great -- the reduced
address space when using a hint address was too small.
A patch for riscv [1] reverts the behavior that broke userspace. This
series serves to make this feature available to all architectures.
I have only tested on riscv and x86. There is a tremendous amount of
duplicated code in mmap so the implementations across architectures I
believe should be mostly consistent. I added this feature to all
architectures that implement either
arch_get_mmap_end()/arch_get_mmap_base() or
arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown()/arch_get_unmapped_area(). I also added
it to the default behavior for arch_get_mmap_end()/arch_get_mmap_base().
