Subject: [PATCH 0/2] fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap
Date: Fri, 21 Feb 2025 12:05:21 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1740139449.git.lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> (raw)

Currently there is no means of determining whether a give page in a mapping
range is designated a guard region (as installed via madvise() using the
MADV_GUARD_INSTALL flag).

This is generally not an issue, but in some instances users may wish to
determine whether this is the case.

This series adds this ability via /proc/$pid/pagemap, updates the
documentation and adds a self test to assert that this functions correctly.
