net: Introduce preferred busy-polling
The existing busy-polling mode, enabled by the SO_BUSY_POLL socket
option or system-wide using the /proc/sys/net/core/busy_read knob, is
an opportunistic. That means that if the NAPI context is not
scheduled, it will poll it. If, after busy-polling, the budget is
exceeded the busy-polling logic will schedule the NAPI onto the
regular softirq handling.
One implication of the behavior above is that a busy/heavy loaded NAPI
context will never enter/allow for busy-polling. Some applications
prefer that most NAPI processing would be done by busy-polling.
This series adds a new socket option, SO_PREFER_BUSY_POLL, that works
in concert with the napi_defer_hard_irqs and gro_flush_timeout
knobs. The napi_defer_hard_irqs and gro_flush_timeout knobs were
introduced in commit

arch: move SA_* definitions to generic headers
Most architectures with the exception of alpha, mips, parisc and sparc use the same values for these flags. Move their definitions into asm-generic/signal-defs.h and allow the architectures with non-standard values to override them. Also, document the non-standard flag values in order to make it easier to add new generic flags in the future. A consequence of this change is that on powerpc and x86, the constants' values aside from SA_RESETHAND change signedness from unsigned to signed. This is not expected to impact realistic use of these constants. In particular the typical use of the constants where they are or'ed together and assigned to sa_flags (or another int variable) would not be affected.

mm: introduce MADV_PAGEOUT
When a process expects no accesses to a certain memory range for a long time, it could hint kernel that the pages can be reclaimed instantly but data should be preserved for future use. This could reduce workingset eviction so it ends up increasing performance. This patch introduces the new MADV_PAGEOUT hint to madvise(2) syscall. MADV_PAGEOUT can be used by a process to mark a memory range as not expected to be used for a long time so that kernel reclaims *any LRU* pages instantly. The hint can help kernel in deciding which pages to evict proactively. A note: It doesn't apply SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX LRU page isolation limit intentionally because it's automatically bounded by PMD size. If PMD size(e.g., 256) makes some trouble, we could fix it later by limit it to SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX[1]. - man-page material MADV_PAGEOUT (since Linux x.x) Do not expect access in the near future so pages in the specified regions could be reclaimed instantly regardless of memory pressure. Thus, access in the range after successful operation could cause major page fault but never lose the up-to-date contents unlike MADV_DONTNEED. Pages belonging to a shared mapping are only processed if a write access is allowed for the calling process. MADV_PAGEOUT cannot be applied to locked pages, Huge TLB pages, or VM_PFNMAP pages.

mm: introduce MADV_COLD
Patch series "Introduce MADV_COLD and MADV_PAGEOUT", v7. - Background The Android terminology used for forking a new process and starting an app from scratch is a cold start, while resuming an existing app is a hot start. While we continually try to improve the performance of cold starts, hot starts will always be significantly less power hungry as well as faster so we are trying to make hot start more likely than cold start. To increase hot start, Android userspace manages the order that apps should be killed in a process called ActivityManagerService. ActivityManagerService tracks every Android app or service that the user could be interacting with at any time and translates that into a ranked list for lmkd(low memory killer daemon). They are likely to be killed by lmkd if the system has to reclaim memory. In that sense they are similar to entries in any other cache. Those apps are kept alive for opportunistic performance improvements but those performance improvements will vary based on the memory requirements of individual workloads. - Problem Naturally, cached apps were dominant consumers of memory on the system. However, they were not significant consumers of swap even though they are good candidate for swap. Under investigation, swapping out only begins once the low zone watermark is hit and kswapd wakes up, but the overall allocation rate in the system might trip lmkd thresholds and cause a cached process to be killed(we measured performance swapping out vs. zapping the memory by killing a process. Unsurprisingly, zapping is 10x times faster even though we use zram which is much faster than real storage) so kill from lmkd will often satisfy the high zone watermark, resulting in very few pages actually being moved to swap. - Approach The approach we chose was to use a new interface to allow userspace to proactively reclaim entire processes by leveraging platform information. This allowed us to bypass the inaccuracy of the kernel’s LRUs for pages that are known to be cold from userspace and to avoid races with lmkd by reclaiming apps as soon as they entered the cached state. Additionally, it could provide many chances for platform to use much information to optimize memory efficiency. To achieve the goal, the patchset introduce two new options for madvise. One is MADV_COLD which will deactivate activated pages and the other is MADV_PAGEOUT which will reclaim private pages instantly. These new options complement MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE by adding non-destructive ways to gain some free memory space. MADV_PAGEOUT is similar to MADV_DONTNEED in a way that it hints the kernel that memory region is not currently needed and should be reclaimed immediately; MADV_COLD is similar to MADV_FREE in a way that it hints the kernel that memory region is not currently needed and should be reclaimed when memory pressure rises. This patch (of 5): When a process expects no accesses to a certain memory range, it could give a hint to kernel that the pages can be reclaimed when memory pressure happens but data should be preserved for future use. This could reduce workingset eviction so it ends up increasing performance. This patch introduces the new MADV_COLD hint to madvise(2) syscall. MADV_COLD can be used by a process to mark a memory range as not expected to be used in the near future. The hint can help kernel in deciding which pages to evict early during memory pressure. It works for every LRU pages like MADV_[DONTNEED|FREE]. IOW, It moves active file page -> inactive file LRU active anon page -> inacdtive anon LRU Unlike MADV_FREE, it doesn't move active anonymous pages to inactive file LRU's head because MADV_COLD is a little bit different symantic. MADV_FREE means it's okay to discard when the memory pressure because the content of the page is *garbage* so freeing such pages is almost zero overhead since we don't need to swap out and access afterward causes just minor fault. Thus, it would make sense to put those freeable pages in inactive file LRU to compete other used-once pages. It makes sense for implmentaion point of view, too because it's not swapbacked memory any longer until it would be re-dirtied. Even, it could give a bonus to make them be reclaimed on swapless system. However, MADV_COLD doesn't mean garbage so reclaiming them requires swap-out/in in the end so it's bigger cost. Since we have designed VM LRU aging based on cost-model, anonymous cold pages would be better to position inactive anon's LRU list, not file LRU. Furthermore, it would help to avoid unnecessary scanning if system doesn't have a swap device. Let's start simpler way without adding complexity at this moment. However, keep in mind, too that it's a caveat that workloads with a lot of pages cache are likely to ignore MADV_COLD on anonymous memory because we rarely age anonymous LRU lists. * man-page material MADV_COLD (since Linux x.x) Pages in the specified regions will be treated as less-recently-accessed compared to pages in the system with similar access frequencies. In contrast to MADV_FREE, the contents of the region are preserved regardless of subsequent writes to pages. MADV_COLD cannot be applied to locked pages, Huge TLB pages, or VM_PFNMAP pages.

There is SO_ATTACH_REUSEPORT_[CE]BPF but there is no DETACH. This patch adds SO_DETACH_REUSEPORT_BPF sockopt. The same sockopt can be used to undo both SO_ATTACH_REUSEPORT_[CE]BPF. reseport_detach_prog() is added and it is mostly a mirror of the existing reuseport_attach_prog(). The differences are, it does not call reuseport_alloc() and returns -ENOENT when there is no old prog.

net: socket: implement 64-bit timestamps
The 'timeval' and 'timespec' data structures used for socket timestamps are going to be redefined in user space based on 64-bit time_t in future versions of the C library to deal with the y2038 overflow problem, which breaks the ABI definition. Unlike many modern ioctl commands, SIOCGSTAMP and SIOCGSTAMPNS do not use the _IOR() macro to encode the size of the transferred data, so it remains ambiguous whether the application uses the old or new layout. The best workaround I could find is rather ugly: we redefine the command code based on the size of the respective data structure with a ternary operator. This lets it get evaluated as late as possible, hopefully after that structure is visible to the caller. We cannot use an #ifdef here, because inux/sockios.h might have been included before any libc header that could determine the size of time_t. The ioctl implementation now interprets the new command codes as always referring to the 64-bit structure on all architectures, while the old architecture specific command code still refers to the old architecture specific layout. The new command number is only used when they are actually different. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |

KVM: export <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> iif KVM is supported
I do not see any consistency about headers_install of <linux/kvm_para.h>
and <asm/kvm_para.h>.
According to my analysis of Linux 5.1-rc1, there are 3 groups:
[1] Both <linux/kvm_para.h> and <asm/kvm_para.h> are exported
alpha, arm, hexagon, mips, powerpc, s390, sparc, x86
[2] <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported, but <linux/kvm_para.h> is not
arc, arm64, c6x, h8300, ia64, m68k, microblaze, nios2, openrisc,
parisc, sh, unicore32, xtensa
[3] Neither <linux/kvm_para.h> nor <asm/kvm_para.h> is exported
csky, nds32, riscv
This does not match to the actual KVM support. At least, [2] is
half-baked.
Nor do arch maintainers look like they care about this. For example,

kbuild: force all architectures except um to include mandatory-y
Currently, every arch/*/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild explicitly includes the common Kbuild.asm file. Factor out the duplicated include directives to scripts/Makefile.asm-generic so that no architecture would opt out of the mandatory-y mechanism. um is not forced to include mandatory-y since it is a very exceptional case which does not support UAPI.

y2038: fix socket.h header inclusion
Referencing the __kernel_long_t type caused some user space applications
to stop compiling when they had not already included linux/posix_types.h,
e.g.
s/multicast.c -o ext/sockets/multicast.lo
In file included from /builddir/build/BUILD/php-7.3.3/main/php.h:468,
from /builddir/build/BUILD/php-7.3.3/ext/sockets/sockets.c:27:
/builddir/build/BUILD/php-7.3.3/ext/sockets/sockets.c: In function 'zm_startup_sockets':
/builddir/build/BUILD/php-7.3.3/ext/sockets/sockets.c:776:40: error: '__kernel_long_t' undeclared (first use in this function)
776 | REGISTER_LONG_CONSTANT("SO_SNDTIMEO", SO_SNDTIMEO, CONST_CS | CONST_PERSISTENT);
It is safe to include that header here, since it only contains kernel
internal types that do not conflict with other user space types.
It's still possible that some related build failures remain, but those
are likely to be for code that is not already y2038 safe.

socket: Rename SO_RCVTIMEO/ SO_SNDTIMEO with _OLD suffixes

The subsequent patches in the series add support for new socket timeout options with _NEW suffix that will use y2038 safe data structures. Although the existing struct timeval layout is sufficiently wide to represent timeouts, because of the way libc will interpret time_t based on user defined flag, these new flags provide a way of having a structure that is the same for all architectures consistently. Rename the existing options with _OLD suffix forms so that the right option is enabled for userspace applications according to the architecture and time_t definition of libc.

alpha: update syscall macro definitions
Other architectures commonly use __NR_umount2 for sys_umount, only ia64 and alpha use __NR_umount here. In order to synchronize the generated tables, use umount2 like everyone else, and add back the old name from asm/unistd.h for compatibility. For shmat, alpha uses the osf_shmat name, we can do the same thing here, which means we don't have to add an entry in the __IGNORE list now that shmat is mandatory everywhere alarm, creat, pause, time, and utime are optional everywhere these days, no need to list them here any more. I considered also adding the regular versions of the get*id system calls that have different names and calling conventions on alpha, which would further help unify the syscall ABI, but for now I decided against that.

net: introduce SO_BINDTOIFINDEX sockopt
This introduces a new generic SOL_SOCKET-level socket option called SO_BINDTOIFINDEX. It behaves similar to SO_BINDTODEVICE, but takes a network interface index as argument, rather than the network interface name. User-space often refers to network-interfaces via their index, but has to temporarily resolve it to a name for a call into SO_BINDTODEVICE. This might pose problems when the network-device is renamed asynchronously by other parts of the system. When this happens, the SO_BINDTODEVICE might either fail, or worse, it might bind to the wrong device. In most cases user-space only ever operates on devices which they either manage themselves, or otherwise have a guarantee that the device name will not change (e.g., devices that are UP cannot be renamed). However, particularly in libraries this guarantee is non-obvious and it would be nice if that race-condition would simply not exist. It would make it easier for those libraries to operate even in situations where the device-name might change under the hood. A real use-case that we recently hit is trying to start the network stack early in the initrd but make it survive into the real system. Existing distributions rename network-interfaces during the transition from initrd into the real system. This, obviously, cannot affect devices that are up and running (unless you also consider moving them between network-namespaces). However, the network manager now has to make sure its management engine for dormant devices will not run in parallel to these renames. Particularly, when you offload operations like DHCP into separate processes, these might setup their sockets early, and thus have to resolve the device-name possibly running into this race-condition. By avoiding a call to resolve the device-name, we no longer depend on the name and can run network setup of dormant devices in parallel to the transition off the initrd. The SO_BINDTOIFINDEX ioctl plugs this race.

alpha: add __NR_syscalls along with NR_SYSCALLS
NR_SYSCALLS macro holds the number of system call exist in alpha architecture. We have to change the value of NR- _SYSCALLS, if we add or delete a system call. One of the patch in this patch series has a script which will generate a uapi header based on syscall.tbl file. The syscall.tbl file contains the total number of system calls information. So we have two option to update NR_SY- CALLS value. 1. Update NR_SYSCALLS in asm/unistd.h manually by count- ing the no.of system calls. No need to update NR_SYS- CALLS until we either add a new system call or delete existing system call. 2. We can keep this feature it above mentioned script, that will count the number of syscalls and keep it in a generated file. In this case we don't need to expli- citly update NR_SYSCALLS in asm/unistd.h file. The 2nd option will be the recommended one. For that, I added the __NR_syscalls macro in uapi/asm/unistd.h along with NR_SYSCALLS asm/unistd.h. The macro __NR_syscalls also added for making the name convention same across all architecture. While __NR_syscalls isn't strictly part of the uapi, having it as part of the generated header to simplifies the implementation. We also need to enclose this macro with #ifdef __KERNEL__ to avoid side effects. Signed-off-by: Firoz Khan <firoz.khan@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Matt Turner <mattst88@gmail.com> |

arch/alpha, termios: implement BOTHER, IBSHIFT and termios2
Alpha has had c_ispeed and c_ospeed, but still set speeds in c_cflags using arbitrary flags. Because BOTHER is not defined, the general Linux code doesn't allow setting arbitrary baud rates, and because CBAUDEX == 0, we can have an array overrun of the baud_rate[] table in drivers/tty/tty_baudrate.c if (c_cflags & CBAUD) == 037. Resolve both problems by #defining BOTHER to 037 on Alpha. However, userspace still needs to know if setting BOTHER is actually safe given legacy kernels (does anyone actually care about that on Alpha anymore?), so enable the TCGETS2/TCSETS*2 ioctls on Alpha, even though they use the same structure. Define struct termios2 just for compatibility; it is the exact same structure as struct termios. In a future patchset, this will be cleaned up so the uapi headers are usable from libc.

Rework the defintion of struct siginfo so that the array padding struct siginfo to SI_MAX_SIZE can be placed in a union along side of the rest of the struct siginfo members.

net: Add a new socket option for a future transmit time.
This patch introduces SO_TXTIME. User space enables this option in
order to pass a desired future transmit time in a CMSG when calling
sendmsg(2). The argument to this socket option is a 8-bytes long struct
provided by the uapi header net_tstamp.h defined as:
struct sock_txtime {
clockid_t clockid;
u32 flags;
};
Note that new fields were added to struct sock by filling a 2-bytes
hole found in the struct. For that reason, neither the struct size or
number of cachelines were altered.

signal/alpha: Replace TRAP_FIXME with TRAP_UNK
Using an si_code of 0 that aliases with SI_USER is clearly the wrong thing to do, and causes problems in interesting ways. For it really is not clear to me if using TRAP_UNK bugcheck or the default case of gentrap is really the best way to handle things. There is certainly enough information that that a more specific si_code could potentially be used. That said TRAP_UNK is definitely an improvement over 0 as it removes the ambiguiuty of what si_code of 0 with SIGTRAP means on alpha. Recent history suggests no actually cares about crazy corner cases of the kernel behavior like this so I don't expect any regressions from changing this. However if something does happen this change is easy to revert.

mm: introduce MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE
Patch series "mm: introduce MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE", v2. This has started as a follow up discussion [3][4] resulting in the runtime failure caused by hardening patch [5] which removes MAP_FIXED from the elf loader because MAP_FIXED is inherently dangerous as it might silently clobber an existing underlying mapping (e.g. stack). The reason for the failure is that some architectures enforce an alignment for the given address hint without MAP_FIXED used (e.g. for shared or file backed mappings). One way around this would be excluding those archs which do alignment tricks from the hardening [6]. The patch is really trivial but it has been objected, rightfully so, that this screams for a more generic solution. We basically want a non-destructive MAP_FIXED. The first patch introduced MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE which enforces the given address but unlike MAP_FIXED it fails with EEXIST if the given range conflicts with an existing one. The flag is introduced as a completely new one rather than a MAP_FIXED extension because of the backward compatibility. We really want a never-clobber semantic even on older kernels which do not recognize the flag. Unfortunately mmap sucks wrt flags evaluation because we do not EINVAL on unknown flags. On those kernels we would simply use the traditional hint based semantic so the caller can still get a different address (which sucks) but at least not silently corrupt an existing mapping. I do not see a good way around that. Except we won't export expose the new semantic to the userspace at all. It seems there are users who would like to have something like that. Jemalloc has been mentioned by Michael Ellerman [7] Florian Weimer has mentioned the following: : glibc ld.so currently maps DSOs without hints. This means that the kernel : will map right next to each other, and the offsets between them a completely : predictable. We would like to change that and supply a random address in a : window of the address space. If there is a conflict, we do not want the : kernel to pick a non-random address. Instead, we would try again with a : random address. John Hubbard has mentioned CUDA example : a) Searches /proc/<pid>/maps for a "suitable" region of available : VA space. "Suitable" generally means it has to have a base address : within a certain limited range (a particular device model might : have odd limitations, for example), it has to be large enough, and : alignment has to be large enough (again, various devices may have : constraints that lead us to do this). : : This is of course subject to races with other threads in the process. : : Let's say it finds a region starting at va. : : b) Next it does: : p = mmap(va, ...) : : *without* setting MAP_FIXED, of course (so va is just a hint), to : attempt to safely reserve that region. If p != va, then in most cases, : this is a failure (almost certainly due to another thread getting a : mapping from that region before we did), and so this layer now has to : call munmap(), before returning a "failure: retry" to upper layers. : : IMPROVEMENT: --> if instead, we could call this: : : p = mmap(va, ... MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE ...) : : , then we could skip the munmap() call upon failure. This : is a small thing, but it is useful here. (Thanks to Piotr : Jaroszynski and Mark Hairgrove for helping me get that detail : exactly right, btw.) : : c) After that, CUDA suballocates from p, via: : : q = mmap(sub_region_start, ... MAP_FIXED ...) : : Interestingly enough, "freeing" is also done via MAP_FIXED, and : setting PROT_NONE to the subregion. Anyway, I just included (c) for : general interest. Atomic address range probing in the multithreaded programs in general sounds like an interesting thing to me. The second patch simply replaces MAP_FIXED use in elf loader by MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE. I believe other places which rely on MAP_FIXED should follow. Actually real MAP_FIXED usages should be docummented properly and they should be more of an exception.

The main problem of this flag is, however, that it is inherently dangerous because it unmaps existing mappings covered by the requested range. This can cause silent memory corruptions. Some of them even with serious security implications. While the current semantic might be really desiderable in many cases there are others which would want to enforce the given range but rather see a failure than a silent memory corruption on a clashing range. Please note that there is no guarantee that a given range is obeyed by the mmap even when it is free - e.g. arch specific code is allowed to apply an alignment. Introduce a new MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE flag for mmap to achieve this behavior. It has the same semantic as MAP_FIXED wrt. the given address request with a single exception that it fails with EEXIST if the requested address is already covered by an existing mapping. We still do rely on get_unmaped_area to handle all the arch specific MAP_FIXED treatment and check for a conflicting vma after it returns. The flag is introduced as a completely new one rather than a MAP_FIXED extension because of the backward compatibility. We really want a never-clobber semantic even on older kernels which do not recognize the flag. Unfortunately mmap sucks wrt. flags evaluation because we do not EINVAL on unknown flags. On those kernels we would simply use the traditional hint based semantic so the caller can still get a different address (which sucks) but at least not silently corrupt an existing mapping.

Merge branch 'misc.poll' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull poll annotations from Al Viro: "This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as 'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local variables used to hold the future return value'. Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those in this series - it's large enough as it is. Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are arch-independent, but POLL### are not. The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll() work on all architectures. As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered at all on sparc.

libnvdimm for 4.15
* Introduce MAP_SYNC and MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, a mechanism to enable
'userspace flush' of persistent memory updates via filesystem-dax
mappings. It arranges for any filesystem metadata updates that may be
required to satisfy a write fault to also be flushed ("on disk") before
the kernel returns to userspace from the fault handler. Effectively
every write-fault that dirties metadata completes an fsync() before
returning from the fault handler. The new MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE mapping
type guarantees that the MAP_SYNC flag is validated as supported by the
filesystem's ->mmap() file operation.
* Add support for the standard ACPI 6.2 label access methods that
replace the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL (vendor specific) label methods. This
enables interoperability with environments that only implement the
standardized methods.
* Add support for the ACPI 6.2 NVDIMM media error injection methods.
* Add support for the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL v1.6 DIMM commands for latch
last shutdown status, firmware update, SMART error injection, and
SMART alarm threshold control.
* Cleanup physical address information disclosures to be root-only.
* Fix revalidation of the DIMM "locked label area" status to support
dynamic unlock of the label area.
* Expand unit test infrastructure to mock the ACPI 6.2 Translate SPA
(system-physical-address) command and error injection commands.

mm: introduce MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, a mechanism to safely define new mmap flags
The mmap(2) syscall suffers from the ABI anti-pattern of not validating
unknown flags. However, proposals like MAP_SYNC need a mechanism to
define new behavior that is known to fail on older kernels without the
support. Define a new MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE flag pattern that is
guaranteed to fail on all legacy mmap implementations.
It is worth noting that the original proposal was for a standalone
MAP_VALIDATE flag. However, when that could not be supported by all
archs Linus observed:
I see why you *think* you want a bitmap. You think you want
a bitmap because you want to make MAP_VALIDATE be part of MAP_SYNC
etc, so that people can do
ret = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED
| MAP_SYNC, fd, 0);
and "know" that MAP_SYNC actually takes.
And I'm saying that whole wish is bogus. You're fundamentally
depending on special semantics, just make it explicit. It's already
not portable, so don't try to make it so.
Rename that MAP_VALIDATE as MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, make it have a value
of 0x3, and make people do
ret = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE
| MAP_SYNC, fd, 0);
and then the kernel side is easier too (none of that random garbage
playing games with looking at the "MAP_VALIDATE bit", but just another
case statement in that map type thing.
Boom. Done.
Similar to ->fallocate() we also want the ability to validate the
support for new flags on a per ->mmap() 'struct file_operations'
instance basis. Towards that end arrange for flags to be generically
validated against a mmap_supported_flags exported by 'struct
file_operations'. By default all existing flags are implicitly
supported, but new flags require MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE and
per-instance-opt-in.
