Subject: [PATCH v3 12/27] shmem/userfaultfd: Allow wr-protect none pte for file-backed mem
Date:   Thu, 27 May 2021 16:22:47 -0400

File-backed memory differs from anonymous memory in that even if the pte is
missing, the data could still resides either in the file or in page/swap cache.
So when wr-protect a pte, we need to consider none ptes too.

We do that by installing the uffd-wp special swap pte as a marker.  So when
there's a future write to the pte, the fault handler will go the special path
to first fault-in the page as read-only, then report to userfaultfd server with
the wr-protect message.

On the other hand, when unprotecting a page, it's also possible that the pte
got unmapped but replaced by the special uffd-wp marker.  Then we'll need to be
able to recover from a uffd-wp special swap pte into a none pte, so that the
next access to the page will fault in correctly as usual when trigger the fault
handler next time, rather than sending a uffd-wp message.

Special care needs to be taken throughout the change_protection_range()
process.  Since now we allow user to wr-protect a none pte, we need to be able
to pre-populate the page table entries if we see !anonymous && MM_CP_UFFD_WP
requests, otherwise change_protection_range() will always skip when the pgtable
entry does not exist.

Note that this patch only covers the small pages (pte level) but not covering
any of the transparent huge pages yet.  But this will be a base for thps too.
