Subject: [PATCH v3 2/3] selftests/mm/charge_reserved_hugetlb: drop mount size for hugetlbfs
Date: Sun, 21 Dec 2025 20:26:38 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251221122639.3168038-3-liwang@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251221122639.3168038-1-liwang@redhat.com>
charge_reserved_hugetlb.sh mounts a hugetlbfs instance at /mnt/huge with
a fixed size of 256M. On systems with large base hugepages (e.g. 512MB),
this is smaller than a single hugepage, so the hugetlbfs mount ends up
with zero capacity (often visible as size=0 in mount output).
As a result, write_to_hugetlbfs fails with ENOMEM and the test can hang
waiting for progress.

HugePages_Total: 10
HugePages_Free: 10
HugePages_Rsvd: 0
HugePages_Surp: 0
Hugepagesize: 524288 kB
Hugetlb: 5242880 kB
Drop the mount args with 'size=256M', so the filesystem capacity is sufficient
regardless of HugeTLB page size.
