Subject: [PATCH v13 00/12] KVM: guest_memfd: Add NUMA mempolicy support
Miguel, you got pulled in due to a one-line change to add a new iterator
macros in .clang-format.
Shivank's series to add support for NUMA-aware memory placement in
guest_memfd. Based on kvm-x86/next.
Note, Ackerley pointed out that we should probably have testing for the
cpuset_do_page_mem_spread() behavior. I 100% agree, but I'm also a-ok
merging without those tests.
v13:
- Collect reviews.
- Add kvm_gmem_for_each_file to .clang-format. [Ackerley]
- Fix typos. [Ackerley]
- Don't use get_task_policy() if the guest_memfd doesn't have its own
policy, so that cpuset_do_page_mem_spread() works. [Ackerley]
- Fix goofs in the changelogs related to numaif.h. [Ackerley]
v12:
- https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251007221420.344669-1-seanjc@google.com
- Add missing functionality to KVM selftests' existing numaif.h instead of
linking to libnuma (which appears to have caveats with -static).
- Add KVM_SYSCALL_DEFINE() infrastructure to reduce the boilerplate needed
to wrap syscalls and/or to assert that a syscall succeeds.
- Rename kvm_gmem to gmem_file, and use gmem_inode for the inode structure.
- Track flags in a gmem_inode field instead of using i_private.
- Add comments to call out subtleties in the mempolicy code (e.g. that
returning NULL for vm_operations_struct.get_policy() is important for ABI
reasons).
- Improve debugability of guest_memfd_test (I kept generating SIGBUS when
tweaking the tests).
- Test mbind() with private memory (sadly, verifying placement with
move_pages() doesn't work due to the dependency on valid page tables).
- V11: Rebase on kvm-next, remove RFC tag, use Ackerley's latest patch
and fix a rcu race bug during kvm module unload.
- V10: Rebase on top of Fuad's V17. Use latest guest_memfd inode patch
from Ackerley (with David's review comments). Use newer kmem_cache_create()
API variant with arg parameter (Vlastimil)
- v9: Rebase on top of Fuad's V13 and incorporate review comments
- v8: Rebase on top of Fuad's V12: Host mmaping for guest_memfd memory.
- v7: Use inodes to store NUMA policy instead of file [0].
- v4-v6: Current approach using shared_policy support and vm_ops (based on
suggestions from David [1] and guest_memfd bi-weekly upstream
call discussion [2]).
- v3: Introduced fbind() syscall for VMM memory-placement configuration.
- v1,v2: Extended the KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD IOCTL to pass mempolicy.
