Subject: [PATCH v3 1/4] mm: ksm: have KSM VMA checks not require a VMA pointer
Date: Thu, 29 May 2025 18:15:45 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <36ad13eb50cdbd8aac6dcfba22c65d5031667295.1748537921.git.lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1748537921.git.lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com>

In subsequent commits we are going to determine KSM eligibility prior to a
VMA being constructed, at which point we will of course not yet have access
to a VMA pointer.

It is trivial to boil down the check logic to be parameterised on
mm_struct, file and VMA flags, so do so.

As a part of this change, additionally expose and use file_is_dax() to
determine whether a file is being mapped under a DAX inode.
