To me, it looks like this
work can be modified to use filemap_xip.
How?
First, get a struct page behind the subject file system image. A good
idea to get there is to use vmem_map, which allows have a
discontiguous mem_map array in virtual storage. Then add the memory
segment's address range to it. Sparsemem also helps, if vmem_map is
not available.
Second, implement get_xip_page for this file system. This address
space operation needs to be provided for all files that are supposed
to be XIP. readpage(s)/writepage(s) should not be provided for these
files, becuase they rely on using the page cache.
Third, use file operations from mm/filemap_xip.c.
so long,
Carsten
