[RFC v2 09/13] mm: Restrict memory encryption to anonymous VMA's

Alison Schofield alison.schofield at intel.com
Tue Dec 4 07:39:56 UTC 2018


Memory encryption is only supported for mappings that are ANONYMOUS.
Test the entire range of VMA's in an encrypt_mprotect() request to
make sure they all meet that requirement before encrypting any.

The encrypt_mprotect syscall will return -EINVAL and will not encrypt
any VMA's if this check fails.
