------------------------------------------------------ From: Peter Xu peterx@redhat.com Subject: Revert "userfaultfd: don't fail on unrecognized features" Date: Wed, 12 Apr 2023 12:38:52 -0400

This is a proposal to revert commit 914eedcb9ba0ff53c33808.

I found this when writing a simple UFFDIO_API test to be the first unit test in this set. Two things breaks with the commit:

- UFFDIO_API check was lost and missing. According to man page, the kernel should reject ioctl(UFFDIO_API) if uffdio_api.api != 0xaa. This check is needed if the api version will be extended in the future, or user app won't be able to identify which is a new kernel.

- Feature flags checks were removed, which means UFFDIO_API with a feature that does not exist will also succeed. According to the man page, we should (and it makes sense) to reject ioctl(UFFDIO_API) if unknown features passed in.
