mm: perform VMA allocation, freeing, duplication in mm
Right now these are performed in kernel/fork.c which is odd and a violation of separation of concerns, as well as preventing us from integrating this and related logic into userland VMA testing going forward. There is a fly in the ointment - nommu - mmap.c is not compiled if CONFIG_MMU not set, and neither is vma.c. To square the circle, let's add a new file - vma_init.c. This will be compiled for both CONFIG_MMU and nommu builds, and will also form part of the VMA userland testing. This allows us to de-duplicate code, while maintaining separation of concerns and the ability for us to userland test this logic. Update the VMA userland tests accordingly, additionally adding a detach_free_vma() helper function to correctly detach VMAs before freeing them in test code, as this change was triggering the assert for this.

mm: establish mm/vma_exec.c for shared exec/mm VMA functionality
Patch series "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm", v3. Currently VMA allocation, freeing and duplication exist in kernel/fork.c, which is a violation of separation of concerns, and leaves these functions exposed to the rest of the kernel when they are in fact internal implementation details. Resolve this by moving this logic to mm, and making it internal to vma.c, vma.h. This also allows us, in future, to provide userland testing around this functionality. We additionally abstract dup_mmap() to mm, being careful to ensure kernel/fork.c acceses this via the mm internal header so it is not exposed elsewhere in the kernel. As part of this change, also abstract initial stack allocation performed in __bprm_mm_init() out of fs code into mm via the create_init_stack_vma(), as this code uses vm_area_alloc() and vm_area_free(). In order to do so sensibly, we introduce a new mm/vma_exec.c file, which contains the code that is shared by mm and exec. This file is added to both memory mapping and exec sections in MAINTAINERS so both sets of maintainers can maintain oversight. As part of this change, we also move relocate_vma_down() to mm/vma_exec.c so all shared mm/exec functionality is kept in one place. We add code shared between nommu and mmu-enabled configurations in order to share VMA allocation, freeing and duplication code correctly while also keeping these functions available in userland VMA testing. This is achieved by adding a mm/vma_init.c file which is also compiled by the userland tests. This patch (of 4): There is functionality that overlaps the exec and memory mapping subsystems. While it properly belongs in mm, it is important that exec maintainers maintain oversight of this functionality correctly. We can establish both goals by adding a new mm/vma_exec.c file which contains these 'glue' functions, and have fs/exec.c import them. As a part of this change, to ensure that proper oversight is achieved, add the file to both the MEMORY MAPPING and EXEC & BINFMT API, ELF sections. scripts/get_maintainer.pl can correctly handle files in multiple entries and this neatly handles the cross-over.

tools: improve vma test Makefile
Patch series "mm: remove vma_merge()", v3. The infamous vma_merge() function has been the cause of a great deal of pain, bugs and confusion for a very long time. It is subtle, contains many corner cases, tries to do far too much and is as a result very fragile. The fact that the function requires there to be a numbering system to cover each possible eventuality with references to each in the many branches of its implementation as to which case you are looking at speaks to all this. Some of this complexity is inherent - unfortunately there is no getting away from the need to figure out precisely how to execute the merge, whether we need to remove VMAs, whether it is safe to do so, what constitutes a mergeable VMA and so on. However, a lot of the complexity is not inherent but instead a product of the function's 'organic' development. Liam has gone to great lengths to improve the situation as a part of his maple tree implementation, greatly improving the readability of the code, and Vlastimil and myself have additionally gone to lengths to try to improve things further. However, with the availability of userland VMA testing, it now becomes possible to perform a rather more significant refactoring while maintaining confidence in its correct operation. An attempt was previously made by Vlastimil [0] to eliminate vma_merge(), however it was rather - brutal - and an astute reader might refer to the date of that patch for insight as to its intent. This series instead divides merge operations into two natural kinds - merges which occur when a NEW vma is being added to the address space, and merges which occur when a vma is being MODIFIED. Happily, the vma_expand() function introduced by Liam, which has the capacity for also deleting a subsequent VMA, covers each of the NEW vma cases. By abstracting the actual final commit of changes to a VMA to its own function, commit_merge() and writing a wrapper around vma_expand() for new VMA cases vma_merge_new_range(), we can avoid having to use vma_merge() for these instances altogether. By doing so we are also able to then de-duplicate all existing merge logic in mmap_region() and do_brk_flags() and have everything invoke this new function, so we universally take the same approach to merging new VMAs. Having done so, we can then completely rework vma_merge() into vma_merge_existing_range() and use this for the instances where a merge is proposed for a region of an existing VMA. This eliminates vma_merge() and its numbered cases and instead divides things into logical cases - merge both, merge left, merge right (the latter 2 being either partial or full merges). The code is heavily annotated with ASCII diagrams and greatly simplified in comparison to the existing vma_merge() function. Having made this change, we take the opportunity to address an issue with merging VMAs possessing a vm_ops->close() hook - commit |

tools: add skeleton code for userland testing of VMA logic
Establish a new userland VMA unit testing implementation under tools/testing which utilises existing logic providing maple tree support in userland utilising the now-shared code previously exclusive to radix tree testing. This provides fundamental VMA operations whose API is defined in mm/vma.h, while stubbing out superfluous functionality. This exists as a proof-of-concept, with the test implementation functional and sufficient to allow userland compilation of vma.c, but containing only cursory tests to demonstrate basic functionality.
