This is v3 of uffd-wp shmem & hugetlbfs support, which completes uffd-wp as a kernel full feature, as it only supports anonymous before this series. It's based on latest v5.13-rc3-mmots-2021-05-25-20-12.Andrew, Any suggestion on how I should move on with this series?It is large, and thinly reviewed. I haven't seriously looked at it yet. If nothing much else happens I might toss it in there for some additional exposure but I do think more input from other developers is needed before we go further.
It's just that the 1st RFC series was posted ~6 months ago and the major things should be mostly the same since then (we've got a few patches merged; but mostly for the sake of dependencies of other projects): https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210115170907.24498-1-peterx@redhat.com/ (local) So I start to doubt whether I should ask you for help (after bothering at least Mike and Hugh already :), as I have very little confidence that this series will be reviewed thoroughly in the near future if I do nothing. But I definitely agree with you, it's still relatively large changeset with not so much review done. Let's keep it there for some more time, then. Thanks, -- Peter Xu
