Subject: [PATCH v14 19/21] KVM: Introduce the KVM capability KVM_CAP_GMEM_MMAP
Date: Tue, 15 Jul 2025 10:33:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250715093350.2584932-20-tabba@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250715093350.2584932-1-tabba@google.com>

Introduce the new KVM capability KVM_CAP_GMEM_MMAP. This capability
signals to userspace that a KVM instance supports host userspace mapping
of guest_memfd-backed memory.

The availability of this capability is determined per architecture, and
its enablement for a specific guest_memfd instance is controlled by the
GUEST_MEMFD_FLAG_MMAP flag at creation time.

Update the KVM API documentation to detail the KVM_CAP_GMEM_MMAP
capability, the associated GUEST_MEMFD_FLAG_MMAP, and provide essential
information regarding support for mmap in guest_memfd.
