Subject: [PATCH] util: add fallback for qemu_memfd_alloc()
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Add an open/unlink/mmap fallback for system that do not support
memfd (only available since 3.17, ~1y ago).
This patch may require additional SELinux policies to work for enforced
systems, but should fail gracefully in this case.
