Minimal supplement to upstream Kernel Self Protection Project changes. Features already provided by SELinux + Yama and archs other than multiarch arm64 / x86_64 aren't in scope. Only tags have stable history. Shared IRC channel with KSPP: irc.libera.chat #linux-hardening

Mike Kravetz 1c9e8def43 userfaultfd: hugetlbfs: add UFFDIO_COPY support for shared mappings
When userfaultfd hugetlbfs support was originally added, it followed the
pattern of anon mappings and did not support any vmas marked VM_SHARED.
As such, support was only added for private mappings.

Remove this limitation and support shared mappings.  The primary
functional change required is adding pages to the page cache.  More subtle
changes are required for huge page reservation handling in error paths.  A
lengthy comment in the code describes the reservation handling.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
