[PATCH 14/26] mm: asi: Add basic infrastructure for global non-sensitive mappings

From: Brendan Jackman
Date: Fri Jul 12 2024 - 13:05:35 EST


From: Junaid Shahid <junaids@xxxxxxxxxx>

A pseudo-PGD is added to store global non-sensitive ASI mappings.
Actual ASI PGDs copy entries from this pseudo-PGD during asi_init().

Memory can be mapped as globally non-sensitive by calling asi_map()
with ASI_GLOBAL_NONSENSITIVE.

Page tables allocated for global non-sensitive mappings are never
freed.

While a previous version used init_mm.asi[0] as the special global
nonsensitive domain, here we have tried to avoid special-casing index 0.
So now we have a special global variable for that. For this to work we
need to make sure that nobody assumes that asi is a member of
asi->mm->asi (also that nobody assumes a struct asi is embedded in a
struct mm - but that seems like a weird assumption to make anyway, when
you already have the .mm pointer). I currently believe that this is
worth it for the reduced level of magic in the code.
