Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 02/13] KVM: guest_memfd: Support private/shared conversion of device memory
Date: Sat, 17 Oct 2026 13:01:38 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261017073149.1303738-3-aneesh.kumar@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261017073149.1303738-1-aneesh.kumar@kernel.org>

Allow architectures to convert device-backed guest_memfd ranges to
private memory. Coordinate conversion with the device provider and
update guest_memfd attributes only after the architecture operation
succeeds.

Hold the inode invalidate lock across conversion and the attribute
update. Provider callbacks allow a device conversion lock to cover the
same operation, with the inode lock acquired first. This prevents faults
and competing device operations from observing an incomplete conversion.
