Before we instantiate/pin the backing store for our use, we
can prepopulate the shmemfs filp efficiently using a write into the
pagecache. We avoid the penalty of instantiating all the pages, important
if the user is just writing to a few and never uses the object on the GPU,
and using a direct write into shmemfs allows it to avoid the cost of
retrieving a page (mostly the clear-before-use, but in theory we could
curtail swapin) before it is overwritten.
This can be extended later to provide additional specialisation for
other backends (other than shmemfs). For now it provides a defense
against very large write-only allocations from exhausting all of system
memory.

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.
