Please no :) 'VMA' is implicit re: mappings. If you're touching memory
mappings you're necessarily touching VMAs.

I know some prctl() (a pathway to many abilities some consider to be
unnatural) uses 'VMA' in some of the endpoints but generally when referring
to specific VMAs no?

These namesa are already kinda horrible (yes naming is hard, for everyone,
ask me about MADV_POISON/REMEDY) but I think something like:

PR_DEFAULT_MADV_HUGEPAGE
PR_DEFAULT_MADV_NOHUGEPAGE

-ish :)


Sure, happy with that, Thanks.

Yes, please :)
