This patchset adds soft dirty and userfaultfd write protect tracking
support for RISC-V.
This patchset has been tested with kselftest mm suite in which soft-dirty,
madv_populate, test_unmerge_uffd_wp, and uffd-unit-tests run and pass,
and no regressions are observed in any of the other tests.
This patchset applies on top of v6.15-rc1.
V7:
- Add Svrsw60t59b [1] extension support;
- Have soft-dirty and uffd-wp depending on the Svrsw60t59b extension to
avoid crashes for the hardware which don't have this extension.
V6:
- Changes to use bits 59-60 which are supported by extension Svrsw60t59b
for soft dirty and userfaultfd write protect tracking.
V5:
- Fixed typos and corrected some words in Kconfig and commit message;
- Removed pte_wrprotect() from pte_swp_mkuffd_wp(), this is a copy-paste
error;
- Added Alex's Reviewed-by tag in patch 2.
V4:
- Added bit(4) descriptions into "Format of swap PTE".
V3:
- Fixed the issue reported by kernel test irobot <lkp at intel.com>.
V1 -> V2:
- Add uffd-wp supported;
- Make soft-dirty uffd-wp and devmap mutually exclusive which all use
the same PTE bit;
- Add test results of CRIU in the cover-letter.
