Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 2/3] mm: secretmem: convert to .mmap_prepare() hook
Date: Thu, 1 May 2025 18:25:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <987b620592ad6a472281039c07cc1d67e48d864f.1746116777.git.lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1746116777.git.lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com>
Secretmem has a simple .mmap() hook which is easily converted to the new
.mmap_prepare() callback.
Importantly, it's a rare instance of an driver that manipulates a VMA which
is mergeable (that is, not a VM_SPECIAL mapping) while also adjusting VMA
flags which may adjust mergeability, meaning the retry merge logic might
impact whether or not the VMA is merged.
By using .mmap_prepare() there's no longer any need to retry the merge
later as we can simply set the correct flags from the start.
This change therefore allows us to remove the retry merge logic in a
subsequent commit.
