[PATCH 0/6] mm/uffd: Misc fix for uffd-wp and one more test

From: Peter Xu
Date: Wed Apr 28 2021 - 18:51:23 EST


This series is based on (mostly) v5.12-rc8-mmots-2021-04-21-23-08. It tries to
fix some corner case bugs for uffd-wp on either thp or fork(). Then it
introduced a new test with pagemap/pageout.

Patch layout:

Patch 1: cleanup for THP, it'll slightly simplify the follow up patches
Patch 2-4: misc fixes for uffd-wp here and there; please refer to each patch
Patch 5: add pagemap support for uffd-wp
Patch 6: add pagemap/pageout test for uffd-wp

The last test introduced can also verify some of the fixes in previous patches,
as the test will fail without the fixes. However it's not easy to verify all
the changes in patch 2-4, but hopefully they can still be properly reviewed.

Note that if considering the ongoing uffd-wp shmem & hugetlbfs work, patch 5
will be incomplete as it's missing e.g. hugetlbfs part or the special swap pte
detection. However that's not needed in this series, and since that series is
still during review, this series does not depend on that one (the last test
only runs with anonymous memory, not file-backed). So this series can be
merged even before that series.

Please review, thanks.
