um: Abandon the _PAGE_NEWPROT bit

2024-10-23T07:52:49Z

When a PTE is updated in the page table, the _PAGE_NEWPAGE bit will always be set. And the corresponding page will always be mapped or unmapped depending on whether the PTE is present or not. The check on the _PAGE_NEWPROT bit is not really reachable. Abandoning it will allow us to simplify the code and remove the unreachable code.

um: refactor TLB update handling

2024-07-03T15:09:50Z

Conceptually, we want the memory mappings to always be up to date and represent whatever is in the TLB. To ensure that, we need to sync them over in the userspace case and for the kernel we need to process the mappings. The kernel will call flush_tlb_* if page table entries that were valid before become invalid. Unfortunately, this is not the case if entries are added. As such, change both flush_tlb_* and set_ptes to track the memory range that has to be synchronized. For the kernel, we need to execute a flush_tlb_kern_* immediately but we can wait for the first page fault in case of set_ptes. For userspace in contrast we only store that a range of memory needs to be synced and do so whenever we switch to that process.
