Subject: [PATCH v1 3/5] mm/shmem: make SGP_NOALLOC succeed on hole like SGP_READ
Date: Wed, 20 May 2026 18:15:36 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260520101538.58745-4-chizhiling@163.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260520101538.58745-1-chizhiling@163.com>

From: Chi Zhiling <chizhiling@kylinos.cn>

Change SGP_NOALLOC to return 0 with NULL folio on hole, matching
SGP_READ behavior. This simplifies the sgp_type handling by unifying
hole semantics across these types.

Previously, SGP_NOALLOC returned -ENOENT on hole, while SGP_READ
returned 0. This inconsistency required special handling in callers
like khugepaged and userfaultfd.

After this change:
- khugepaged: behavior unchanged (checks both error and NULL folio)
- userfaultfd: behavior unchanged (both -ENOENT and NULL are converted
  to -EFAULT before returning to userspace)
