Subject: [PATCH v3 5/9] selftests/mm: check that FORCE_READ() succeeded
Date: Thu, 22 Jan 2026 17:02:20 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260122170224.4056513-6-kevin.brodsky@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260122170224.4056513-1-kevin.brodsky@arm.com>

Many cow tests rely on FORCE_READ() to populate pages. Introduce a
helper to make sure that the pages are actually populated, and fail
otherwise.

Suggested-by: David Hildenbrand (Red Hat) <david@kernel.org>
