[$] Guard pages for file-backed memory
lundi 3 mars 2025, 16:00 , par LWN.net
One of the many new features packed into the 6.13 kernel release was guard
pages, a hardening mechanism that makes it possible to inject zero-access pages into a process's address space in an efficient way. That feature only supports anonymous (user-space data) pages, though. To make guard pages more widely useful, Lorenzo Stoakes has put together a patch set enabling the feature for file-backed pages as well; in the process, he examined and resolved a long list of potential problems that extending the feature could encounter. One potential problem was not on his list, though.
