Subject: [PATCH v12 01/12] KVM: guest_memfd: Rename "struct kvm_gmem" to "struct gmem_file"
Date: Tue, 7 Oct 2025 15:14:09 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251007221420.344669-2-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251007221420.344669-1-seanjc@google.com>
Rename the "kvm_gmem" structure to "gmem_file" in anticipation of using
dedicated guest_memfd inodes instead of anonyomous inodes, at which point
the "kvm_gmem" nomenclature becomes quite misleading. In guest_memfd,
inodes are effectively the raw underlying physical storage, and will be
used to track properties of the physical memory, while each gmem file is
effectively a single VM's view of that storage, and is used to track assets
specific to its associated VM, e.g. memslots=>gmem bindings.
Using "kvm_gmem" suggests that the per-VM/per-file structures are _the_
guest_memfd instance, which almost the exact opposite of reality.
Opportunistically rename local variables from "gmem" to "f", again to
avoid confusion once guest_memfd specific inodes come along.
No functional change intended.
