[PATCH 0/2] mm: adds MAP_NOSIGBUS extension for shmem read
From: Ming Lin
Date: Tue Jun 01 2021 - 19:22:38 EST
These 2 patches are based on the discussion of "Sealed memfd & no-fault mmap"
at https://bit.ly/3pdwOGR
patch 1: make "vm_flags" be an u64, so we can have enough bits on 32-bit
architectures. Then we can add VM_NOSIGBUS which is bit 38.
patch 2: support no-fault mmap for shmem read
Ming Lin (2):
mm: make "vm_flags" be an u64
mm: adds NOSIGBUS extension for out-of-band shmem read
