mm/hugetlb: fix F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE
Patch series "mm/hugetlb: Fix issues on file sealing and fork", v2. Hugh reported issue with F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE not applied correctly to hugetlbfs, which I can easily verify using the memfd_test program, which seems that the program is hardly run with hugetlbfs pages (as by default shmem). Meanwhile I found another probably even more severe issue on that hugetlb fork won't wr-protect child cow pages, so child can potentially write to parent private pages. Patch 2 addresses that. After this series applied, "memfd_test hugetlbfs" should start to pass. This patch (of 2): F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE is missing for hugetlb starting from the first day. There is a test program for that and it fails constantly. $ ./memfd_test hugetlbfs memfd-hugetlb: CREATE memfd-hugetlb: BASIC memfd-hugetlb: SEAL-WRITE memfd-hugetlb: SEAL-FUTURE-WRITE mmap() didn't fail as expected Aborted (core dumped) I think it's probably because no one is really running the hugetlbfs test. Fix it by checking FUTURE_WRITE also in hugetlbfs_file_mmap() as what we do in shmem_mmap(). Generalize a helper for that.
