mm: add mk_vma_flags() bitmap flag macro helper
This patch introduces the mk_vma_flags() macro helper to allow easy manipulation of VMA flags utilising the new bitmap representation implemented of VMA flags defined by the vma_flags_t type. It is a variadic macro which provides a bitwise-or'd representation of all of each individual VMA flag specified. Note that, while we maintain VM_xxx flags for backwards compatibility until the conversion is complete, we define VMA flags of type vma_flag_t using VMA_xxx_BIT to avoid confusing the two. This helper macro therefore can be used thusly: vma_flags_t flags = mk_vma_flags(VMA_READ_BIT, VMA_WRITE_BIT); Testing has demonstrated that the compiler optimises this code such that it generates the same assembly utilising this macro as it does if the flags were specified manually, for instance: vma_flags_t get_flags(void) { return mk_vma_flags(VMA_READ_BIT, VMA_WRITE_BIT, VMA_EXEC_BIT); } Generates the same code as: vma_flags_t get_flags(void) { vma_flags_t flags; vma_flags_clear_all(&flags); vma_flag_set(&flags, VMA_READ_BIT); vma_flag_set(&flags, VMA_WRITE_BIT); vma_flag_set(&flags, VMA_EXEC_BIT); return flags; } And: vma_flags_t get_flags(void) { vma_flags_t flags; unsigned long *bitmap = ACCESS_PRIVATE(&flags, __vma_flags); *bitmap = 1UL << (__force int)VMA_READ_BIT; *bitmap |= 1UL << (__force int)VMA_WRITE_BIT; *bitmap |= 1UL << (__force int)VMA_EXEC_BIT; return flags; } That is: get_flags: movl $7, %eax ret Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/fde00df6ff7fb8c4b42cc0defa5a4924c7a1943a.1769097829.git.lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Stoakes <lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> Suggested-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Pedro Falcato <pfalcato@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Liam R.
