From: Andrea Arcangeli Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2017 23:43:19 +0000 (-0800) Subject: userfaultfd: hugetlbfs: UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=163e11bc4f6ebbfcfdf751c108bd212a26e492ee;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git userfaultfd: hugetlbfs: UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS Userland developers asked to be notified immediately by the UFFDIO_API ioctl if hugetlbfs missing mode is supported by userfaultfd in the running kernel. This avoids the need to run UFFDIO_REGISTER on a hugetlbfs virtual memory range to find out.
