It would be useful to have some userfaultfd testcases in tools/testing/selftests/. Partly as an aid to arch maintainers when enabling this. And also as a standalone thing to give people a practical way of exercising this interface. What are your thoughts on enabling userfaultfd for other architectures, btw? Are there good use cases, are people working on it, etc? Also, I assume a manpage is in the works? Sooner rather than later would be good - Michael's review of proposed kernel interfaces has often been valuable. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
