Subject: [PATCH v3 0/9] Various mm kselftests improvements/fixes
Date: Thu, 22 Jan 2026 17:02:15 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260122170224.4056513-1-kevin.brodsky@arm.com> (raw)
Various improvements/fixes for the mm kselftests:
- Patch 1-3 extend support for more build configurations: out-of-tree
$KDIR, cross-compilation, etc.
- Patch 4-7 fix issues related to faulting in pages, introducing a new
helper for that purpose.
- Patch 8 fixes the value returned by pagemap_ioctl (PASS was always
returned, which explains why the issue fixed in patch 6 went
unnoticed).
- Patch 9 improves the exit code of pfnmap.
Net results:
- 1 test no longer fails (patch 7)
- 3 tests are no longer skipped (patch 4)
- More accurate return values for whole suites (patch 8, 9)
- Extra tests are more likely to be built (patch 1-3)
---
v2..v3:
- Patch 5: new patch [David Hildenbrand]
- Patch 6: make the helper take a number of pages + pagesize, rename to
force_read_pages() [David]
- Patch 7: improved page count calculation (avoiding floating-point
helper)
- Patch 7: added Fixes tag [David]
- Patch 9: open the file only once and save the fd [David]
- Collected R-b/A-b
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260107164842.3289559-1-kevin.brodsky@arm.com/
v1..v2:
- New patches: 1, 4, 5, 8
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251216142633.2401447-1-kevin.brodsky@arm.com/
