Subject: [PATCH v6 7/7] KVM: guest_memfd: Add a guest_memfd() flag to initialize it as shared
Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2025 16:20:46 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250318162046.4016367-8-tabba@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250318162046.4016367-1-tabba@google.com>
Not all use cases require guest_memfd() to be shared with the host when
first created. Add a new flag, GUEST_MEMFD_FLAG_INIT_SHARED, which when
set on KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD initializes the memory as shared with the
host, and therefore mappable by it. Otherwise, memory is private until
explicitly shared by the guest with the host.
