Linux kernel source tree
f7fa67495d
Add helpers to convert memory between private and shared via KVM's memory attributes, as well as helpers to free/allocate guest_memfd memory via fallocate(). Userspace, i.e. tests, is NOT required to do fallocate() when converting memory, as the attributes are the single source of truth. Provide allocate() helpers so that tests can mimic a userspace that frees private memory on conversion, e.g. to prioritize memory usage over performance.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
