Subject: [PATCH v5 07/12] hostmem: Rename guest_memfd to guest_memfd_private
Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 08:30:57 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260908133151.836685-8-michael.roth@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260908133151.836685-1-michael.roth@amd.com>
From: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>
Rename the HostMemoryBackend.guest_memfd field to reflect what it really
means: whether it needs guest_memfd to back its private guest memory.
This will help avoid conflicts when we introduce supported for using
guest_memfd for shared guest memory via hostmem.
