Extend the API of creating guest-memfd to introduce proper NUMA support,
allowing VMM to set memory policies effectively. The memory policy defines
from which node memory is allocated.
The current implementation of KVM guest-memfd does not honor the settings
provided by VMM. While mbind() can be used for NUMA policy support in
userspace applications, it is not functional for guest-memfd as the memory
is not mapped to userspace.
Currently, SEV-SNP guest use guest-memfd as a memory backend and would
benefit from NUMA support. It enables fine-grained control over memory
allocation, optimizing performance for specific workload requirements.
To apply memory policy on a guest-memfd, extend the KVM_CREATE_GUEST_MEMFD
IOCTL with additional fields related to mempolicy.
- mpol_mode represents the policy mode (default, bind, interleave, or
preferred).
- host_nodes_addr denotes the userspace address of the nodemask, a bit
mask of nodes containing up to maxnode bits.
- First bit of flags must be set to use mempolicy.
Store the mempolicy struct in i_private_data of the memfd's inode, which
is currently unused in the context of guest-memfd.
