Subject: [PATCH 6/6] selftests/mm: Mark thuge-gen as skipped if shmmax is too small or no 1G pages
Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2025 21:36:32 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250616160632.35250-7-aboorvad@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250616160632.35250-1-aboorvad@linux.ibm.com>
Make thuge-gen skip instead of fail when it can't run due to system
settings. If shmmax is too small or no 1G huge pages are available,
the test now prints a warning and is marked as skipped.
Before Patch:
-------------------
~ running ./thuge-gen
-------------------
~ TAP version 13
~ Bail out! Please do echo 262144 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
~ Totals: pass:0 fail:0 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0
~ [FAIL]
not ok 28 thuge-gen ~ exit=1
After Patch:
-------------------
~ running ./thuge-gen
-------------------
~ TAP version 13
~ ~ WARNING: shmmax is too small to run this test.
~ ~ Please run the following command to increase shmmax:
~ ~ echo 262144 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
~ 1..0 ~ SKIP Test skipped due to insufficient shmmax value.
~ [SKIP]
ok 29 thuge-gen ~ SKIP
