[PATCH 01/20] mm/vma: add vma_flags_empty(), vma_flags_and(), vma_flags_diff_pair()

Fri Mar 13 06:15:59 AEDT 2026
Firstly, add the ability to determine if VMA flags are empty, that is no
flags are set in a vma_flags_t value.
Next, add the ability to obtain the equivalent of the bitwise and of two
vma_flags_t values, via vma_flags_and().
Next, add the ability to obtain the difference between two sets of VMA
flags, that is the equivalent to the exclusive bitwise OR of the two sets
of flags, via vma_flags_diff_pair().
vma_flags_xxx_mask() typically operates on a pointer to a vma_flags_t
value, which is assumed to be an lvalue of some kind (such as a field in a
struct or a stack variable) and an rvalue of some kind (typically a
constant set of VMA flags obtained e.g. via mk_vma_flags() or equivalent).
However vma_flags_diff_pair() is intended to operate on two lvalues, so use
the _pair() suffix to make this clear.
Finally, update VMA userland tests to add these helpers.
We also port bitmap_xor() and __bitmap_xor() to the tools/ headers and
source to allow the tests to work with vma_flags_diff_pair().
