Subject: [PATCH 0/2] mseal: Fix is_madv_discard()
Date: Wed, 7 Aug 2024 18:33:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240807173336.2523757-1-pedro.falcato@gmail.com> (raw)
This small series fixes is_madv_discard() and adds a small sanity check
test to selftests/mm/mseal_test. Without this patch, is_madv_discard()
erroneously thinks innocent ops like MADV_RANDOM are discard operations
(which they are not, and are supposed to be allowed, per the overall
design).
Based on Linus's tree and taken from my mseal depessimization series[1].
