Andrea Arcangeli 67e803281d userfaultfd: selftest: exercise UFFDIO_COPY/ZEROPAGE -EEXIST
This will retry the UFFDIO_COPY/ZEROPAGE to verify it returns -EEXIST at
the first invocation and then later every 10 seconds.

In the filebacked MAP_SHARED case this also verifies the -EEXIST
triggered in the filesystem pagecache insertion, if the offset in the
file was not a hole.

shmem MAP_SHARED tries to index the newly allocated pagecache in the
radix tree before checking the pagetable so it doesn't need any
assistance to exercise that case.

hugetlbfs checks the pmd to be not none before trying to index the
hugetlbfs page in the radix tree, so it requires to run UFFDIO_COPY into
an alias mapping (the alternative would be to use MADV_DONTNEED to only
zap the pagetables, but that doesn't work on hugetlbfs).

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix uffdio_zeropage(), per Mike Kravetz]

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
