Transparent Huge Pages are currently stored in i_pages as pointers to consecutive subpages. This patch changes that to storing consecutive pointers to the head page in preparation for storing huge pages more efficiently in i_pages. Large parts of this are "inspired" by Kirill's patch https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20170126115819.58875-2-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com/ Kirill and Huang Ying contributed several fixes.

Android uses ashmem for sharing memory regions. We are looking forward to migrating all usecases of ashmem to memfd so that we can possibly remove the ashmem driver in the future from staging while also benefiting from using memfd and contributing to it. Note staging drivers are also not ABI and generally can be removed at anytime. One of the main usecases Android has is the ability to create a region and mmap it as writeable, then add protection against making any "future" writes while keeping the existing already mmap'ed writeable-region active. This allows us to implement a usecase where receivers of the shared memory buffer can get a read-only view, while the sender continues to write to the buffer. See CursorWindow documentation in Android for more details: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/database/CursorWindow This usecase cannot be implemented with the existing F_SEAL_WRITE seal. To support the usecase, this patch adds a new F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal which prevents any future mmap and write syscalls from succeeding while keeping the existing mmap active. A better way to do F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal was discussed [1] last week where we don't need to modify core VFS structures to get the same behavior of the seal. This solves several side-effects pointed by Andy. self-tests are provided in later patch to verify the expected semantics. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20181111173650.GA256781@google.com/ Thanks a lot to Andy for suggestions to improve code.

With the addition of memfd hugetlbfs support, we now have the situation where memfd depends on TMPFS -or- HUGETLBFS. Previously, memfd was only supported on tmpfs, so it made sense that the code resided in shmem.c. In the current code, memfd is only functional if TMPFS is defined. If HUGETLFS is defined and TMPFS is not defined, then memfd functionality will not be available for hugetlbfs. This does not cause BUGs, just a lack of potentially desired functionality. Code is restructured in the following way: - include/linux/memfd.h is a new file containing memfd specific definitions previously contained in shmem_fs.h. - mm/memfd.c is a new file containing memfd specific code previously contained in shmem.c. - memfd specific code is removed from shmem_fs.h and shmem.c. - A new config option MEMFD_CREATE is added that is defined if TMPFS or HUGETLBFS is defined. No functional changes are made to the code: restructuring only. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180415182119.4517-4-mike.kravetz@oracle.com Signed-off-by:
