2025-05-22mm: convert VM_PFNMAP tracking to pfnmap_track() + pfnmap_untrack()David Hildenbrand
Let's use our new interface. In remap_pfn_range(), we'll now decide whether we have to track (full VMA covered) or only lookup the cachemode (partial VMA covered). Remember what we have to untrack by linking it from the VMA. When duplicating VMAs (e.g., splitting, mremap, fork), we'll handle it similar to anon VMA names, and use a kref to share the tracking. Once the last VMA un-refs our tracking data, we'll do the untracking, which simplifies things a lot and should sort our various issues we saw recently, for example, when partially unmapping/zapping a tracked VMA. This change implies that we'll keep tracking the original PFN range even after splitting + partially unmapping it: not too bad, because it was not working reliably before. The only thing that kind-of worked before was shrinking such a mapping using mremap(): we managed to adjust the reservation in a hacky way, now we won't adjust the reservation but leave it around until all involved VMAs are gone. If that ever turns out to be an issue, we could hook into VM splitting code and split the tracking; however, that adds complexity that might not be required, so we'll keep it simple for now.

2025-05-12mm: perform VMA allocation, freeing, duplication in mmLorenzo Stoakes
Right now these are performed in kernel/fork.c which is odd and a violation of separation of concerns, as well as preventing us from integrating this and related logic into userland VMA testing going forward. There is a fly in the ointment - nommu - mmap.c is not compiled if CONFIG_MMU not set, and neither is vma.c. To square the circle, let's add a new file - vma_init.c. This will be compiled for both CONFIG_MMU and nommu builds, and will also form part of the VMA userland testing. This allows us to de-duplicate code, while maintaining separation of concerns and the ability for us to userland test this logic. Update the VMA userland tests accordingly, additionally adding a detach_free_vma() helper function to correctly detach VMAs before freeing them in test code, as this change was triggering the assert for this.
