Hi Mike,

I am working on refining the ideas from project Sileby. I am also
working on designing the implementation. Since the original concept,
the mshare API has evolved further. Here is what it loks like:

The mshare API consists of two system calls - mshare() and
mshare_unlink()

mshare
======

int mshare(char *name,void *addr, size_t length, int oflags, mode_t
mode)

mshare() creates and opens a new, or opens an existing shared memory
area that will be shared at PTE level. name refers to shared object
name that exists under /dev/mshare (this is subject to change. There
might be better ways to manage the names for mshare'd areas). addr is
the starting address of this shared memory area and length is the size
of this area. oflags can be one of:

    O_RDONLY opens shared memory area for read only access by everyone
    O_RDWR opens shared memory area for read and write access
    O_CREAT creates the named shared memory area if it does not exist
    O_EXCL If O_CREAT was also specified, and a shared memory area
        exists with that name, return an error.

mode represents the creation mode for the shared object under
/dev/mshare.

Return Value
------------

mshare() returns a file descriptor. A read from this file descriptor
returns two long values - (1) starting address, and (2) size of the
shared memory area.

Notes
-----

PTEs are shared at pgdir level and hence it imposes following
requirements on the address and size given to the mshare():

    - Starting address must be aligned to pgdir size (512GB on x86_64)
    - Size must be a multiple of pgdir size
    - Any mappings created in this address range at any time become
    shared automatically
    - Shared address range can have unmapped addresses in it. Any
    access to unmapped address will result in SIGBUS

Mappings within this address range behave as if they were shared
between threads, so a write to a MAP_PRIVATE mapping will create a
page which is shared between all the sharers. The first process that
declares an address range mshare'd can continue to map objects in the
shared area. All other processes that want mshare'd access to this
memory area can do so by calling mshare(). After this call, the
address range given by mshare becomes a shared range in its address
space. Anonymous mappings will be shared and not COWed.


mshare_unlink
=============

int mshare_unlink(char *name)

A shared address range created by mshare() can be destroyed using
mshare_unlink() which removes the  shared named object. Once all
processes have unmapped the shared object, the shared address range
references are de-allocated and destroyed.

Return Value
------------

mshare_unlink() returns 0 on success or -1 on error.


Example
=======

A process can create an mshare'd area and map objects into it as
follows:

    fd = mshare("junk",  TB(1), GB(512), O_CREAT|O_RDWR, 0600);

    /* Map objects in the shared address space and/or Write data */

    mshare_unlink("junk");

Another process can then access this shared memory area with another
call to mshare():

    fd = mshare("junk", TB(1), GB(512), O_RDWR, 0600);

    /* Read and write data in TB(1)-((TB(1)+GB(512)) range */

    mshare_unlink("junk");

Yes, file-mapped memory sharing support is planned.

No, each fd can support all VMAs covered by the address range with a
size that is multiple of pgdir size.
