Subject: [PATCH 06/21] mm/page_alloc: add __GFP_SENSITIVE and always set it
Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2025 14:59:41 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250924-b4-asi-page-alloc-v1-6-2d861768041f@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250924-b4-asi-page-alloc-v1-0-2d861768041f@google.com>

__GFP_SENSITIVE represents that a page should not be mapped into the
ASI restricted address space.

This is added as a GFP flag instead of via some contextual hint, because
its presence is not ultimately expected to correspond to any such
existing context. If necessary, it should be possible to instead achieve
this optionality with something like __alloc_pages_sensitive(), but
this would be much more invasive to the overall kernel.

On startup, all pages are sensitive. Since there is currently no way to
create nonsensitive pages, temporarily set the flag unconditionally at
the top of the allocator.

__GFP_SENSITIVE is also added to GFP_USER since that's the most
important data that ASI needs to protect.
