[PATCH v1 08/14] mm/mshare: Add basic page table sharing using mshare
From: Khalid Aziz
Date: Mon Apr 11 2022 - 12:08:48 EST
This patch adds basic page table sharing across tasks by making
mshare syscall. It does this by creating a new mm_struct which
hosts the shared vmas and page tables. This mm_struct is
maintained as long as there is at least one task using the mshare'd
range. It is cleaned up by the last mshare_unlink syscall.
