15 * If the UFFDIO_API is upgraded someday, the UFFDIO_UNREGISTER and
16 * UFFDIO_WAKE ioctls should be defined as _IOW and not as _IOR. In
17 * userfaultfd.h we assumed the kernel was reading (instead _IOC_READ
18 * means the userland is reading).

40 * 0x3F. UFFDIO_API is the fixed number, everything else can be
41 * changed by implementing a different UFFD_API. If sticking to the
42 * same UFFD_API more ioctl can be added and userland will be aware of
43 * which ioctl the running kernel implements through the ioctl command
44 * bitmask written by the UFFDIO_API.

124 * which flags for each event are enabled in the current
127 * Note: UFFD_EVENT_PAGEFAULT and UFFD_PAGEFAULT_FLAG_WRITE

131 * UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS means an UFFDIO_REGISTER
132 * with UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_MISSING mode will succeed on
133 * hugetlbfs virtual memory ranges. Adding or not adding
134 * UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS to uffdio_api.features has
135 * no real functional effect after UFFDIO_API returns, but
136 * it's only useful for an initial feature set probe at
137 * UFFDIO_API time. There are two ways to use it:
139 * 1) by adding UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS to the
140 * uffdio_api.features before calling UFFDIO_API, an error
141 * will be returned by UFFDIO_API on a kernel without
142 * hugetlbfs missing support
144 * 2) the UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS can not be added in
145 * uffdio_api.features and instead it will be set by the
146 * kernel in the uffdio_api.features if the kernel supports
147 * it, so userland can later check if the feature flag is
148 * present in uffdio_api.features after UFFDIO_API
151 * UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_SHMEM works the same as
152 * UFFD_FEATURE_MISSING_HUGETLBFS, but it applies to shmem
153 * (i.e. tmpfs and other shmem based APIs).
