Some header files use __BEGIN_DECLS without including sys/cdefs.h.
This causes issues for C code that compiles against these headers,
which may occur with Ports.
Add the `posix_madvise(..)` LibC implementation that just forwards
to the normal `madvise(..)` implementation.
Also define a few POSIX_MADV_DONTNEED and POSIX_MADV_NORMAL as they
are part of the POSIX API for `posix_madvise(..)`.
This is needed by the `fio` port.
This allows userspace to trigger a full (FIXME) flush of a shared file
mapping to disk. We iterate over all the mapped pages in the VMObject
and write them out to the underlying inode, one by one. This is rather
naive, and there's lots of room for improvement.
Note that shared file mappings are currently not possible since mmap()
returns ENOTSUP for PROT_WRITE+MAP_SHARED. That restriction will be
removed in a subsequent commit. :^)
This patch changes the semantics of purgeable memory.
- AnonymousVMObject now has a "purgeable" flag. It can only be set when
constructing the object. (Previously, all anonymous memory was
effectively purgeable.)
- AnonymousVMObject now has a "volatile" flag. It covers the entire
range of physical pages. (Previously, we tracked ranges of volatile
pages, effectively making it a page-level concept.)
- Non-volatile objects maintain a physical page reservation via the
committed pages mechanism, to ensure full coverage for page faults.
- When an object is made volatile, it relinquishes any unused committed
pages immediately. If later made non-volatile again, we then attempt
to make a new committed pages reservation. If this fails, we return
ENOMEM to userspace.
mmap() now creates purgeable objects if passed the MAP_PURGEABLE option
together with MAP_ANONYMOUS. anon_create() memory is always purgeable.
