charset="UTF-8" Main changes since v14 [1]: * Removed KVM_SW_PROTECTED_VM dependency on KVM_GENERIC_GMEM_POPULATE * Fixed some commit messages Based on Linux 6.16-rc6 This patch series enables host userspace mapping of guest_memfd-backed memory for non-CoCo VMs. This is required for several evolving KVM use cases: * Allows VMMs like Firecracker to run guests entirely backed by guest_memfd [2]. This provides a unified memory management model for both confidential and non-confidential guests, simplifying VMM design. * Enhanced Security via direct map removal: When combined with Patrick's series for direct map removal [3], this provides additional hardening against Spectre-like transient execution attacks by eliminating the need for host kernel direct maps of guest memory. * Lays the groundwork for *restricted* mmap() support for guest_memfd-backed memory on CoCo platforms [4] that permit in-place sharing of guest memory with the host. Patch breakdown: * Patches 1-7: Primarily infrastructure refactorings and renames to decouple guest_memfd from the concept of "private" memory. * Patches 8-9: Add support for the host to map guest_memfd backed memory for non-CoCo VMs, which includes support for mmap() and fault handling. This is gated by a new configuration option, toggled by a new flag, and advertised to userspace by a new capability (introduced in patch 18). * Patches 10-14: Implement x86 guest_memfd mmap support. * Patches 15-18: Implement arm64 guest_memfd mmap support. * Patch 19: Introduce the new capability to advertise this support and update the documentation. * Patches 20-21: Update and expand selftests for guest_memfd to include mmap functionality and improve portability. To test this patch series and boot a guest utilizing the new features, please refer to the instructions in v8 of the series [5]. Note that kvmtool for Linux 6.16 (available at [6]) is required, as the KVM_CAP_GMEM_MMAP capability number has changed, additionally, drop the --sw_protected kvmtool parameter to test with the default VM type.
