This looks like it will be useful for Arm's Confidential Compute Architecture (CCA) too - in particular we need a way of ensuring that user space cannot 'trick' the kernel into accessing memory which has been delegated to a realm (i.e. protected guest), and a memfd seems like a good match. Some comments below. > mm extension > --------------------- > Introduces new F_SEAL_INACCESSIBLE for shmem and new MFD_INACCESSIBLE > flag for memfd_create(), the file created with these flags cannot read(), > write() or mmap() etc via normal MMU operations.

For Arm CCA we are expecting to seed the realm with an initial memory contents (e.g. kernel and initrd) which will then be measured before execution starts. The 'obvious' way of doing this with a memfd would be to populate parts of the memfd then seal it with F_SEAL_INACCESSIBLE. However as things stand it's not possible to set the INACCESSIBLE seal after creating a memfd (F_ALL_SEALS hasn't been updated to include it). One potential workaround would be for arm64 to provide a custom KVM ioctl to effectively memcpy() into the guest's protected memory which would only be accessible before the guest has started. The drawback is that it requires two copies of the data during guest setup. Do you think things could be relaxed so the F_SEAL_INACCESSIBLE flag could be set after a memfd has been created (and partially populated)?
