147 * Kernel answers below with the all available features for
148 * the API, this notifies userland of which events and/or
149 * which flags for each event are enabled in the current
152 * Note: UFFD_EVENT_PAGEFAULT and UFFD_PAGEFAULT_FLAG_WRITE
153 * are to be considered implicitly always enabled in all kernels as
154 * long as the uffdio_api.api requested matches UFFD_API.
156 * UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS means an UFFDIO_REGISTER
157 * with UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_MISSING mode will succeed on
158 * hugetlbfs virtual memory ranges. Adding or not adding
159 * UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS to uffdio_api.features has
160 * no real functional effect after UFFDIO_API returns, but
161 * it's only useful for an initial feature set probe at
162 * UFFDIO_API time. There are two ways to use it:
164 * 1) by adding UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS to the
165 * uffdio_api.features before calling UFFDIO_API, an error
166 * will be returned by UFFDIO_API on a kernel without
167 * hugetlbfs missing support
169 * 2) the UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS can not be added in
170 * uffdio_api.features and instead it will be set by the
171 * kernel in the uffdio_api.features if the kernel supports
172 * it, so userland can later check if the feature flag is
173 * present in uffdio_api.features after UFFDIO_API
176 * UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_SHMEM works the same as
177 * UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS, but it applies to shmem
178 * (i.e. tmpfs and other shmem based APIs).
180 * UFFD_FEATURE_SIGBUS feature means no page-fault
181 * (UFFD_EVENT_PAGEFAULT) event will be delivered, instead
182 * a SIGBUS signal will be sent to the faulting process.
184 * UFFD_FEATURE_THREAD_ID pid of the page faulted task_struct will
185 * be returned, if feature is not requested 0 will be returned.
187 * UFFD_FEATURE_MINOR_HUGETLBFS indicates that minor faults
188 * can be intercepted (via REGISTER_MODE_MINOR) for
189 * hugetlbfs-backed pages.
191 * UFFD_FEATURE_MINOR_SHMEM indicates the same support as
192 * UFFD_FEATURE_MINOR_HUGETLBFS, but for shmem-backed pages instead.
194 * UFFD_FEATURE_EXACT_ADDRESS indicates that the exact address of page
195 * faults would be provided and the offset within the page would not be
