tmpfs: limit regularFile.Translate() fill range
When e.g. an application thread takes a page fault on an mmapped file, MM calls
memmap.Mappable.Translate()
to obtain the corresponding host FD range thatshould be mapped into the application's address space. It passes both the range
that must be mapped (e.g. the faulting page) as
required
, and the maximumrange that may be mapped (the previously-unfaulted part of the corresponding
VMA) as
optional
, such that file implementations can map more thanrequired
to avoid future page faults.
Prior to this CL,
tmpfs.regularFile.Translate()
always returned translationsup to
optional
, under the assumption that allocating larger ranges frompgalloc.MemoryFile
has negligible incremental cost. This behavior dates tothe introduction of
memmap.Mappable.Translate()
(cl/182882705) and thuspredates the implementation of tmpfs size limits (cl/442686814). Now that the
latter exists, unconditionally translating - and therefore allocating pages -
up to
optional
can result in hitting tmpfs size limits prematurely.Thus: Constrain optional translations returned by
tmpfs.regularFile.Translate()
, applying the same logic asgofer.maxFillRange()
.
