Subject: [RFC 10/12] selftests/mm: add PUD THP mprotect split test
Date: Sun, 1 Feb 2026 16:50:27 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260202005451.774496-11-usamaarif642@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260202005451.774496-1-usamaarif642@gmail.com>
Add a test that changes permissions on a portion of a PUD THP using
mprotect. Since different parts now have different permissions, the
PUD must be split. The test verifies correct behavior after the
permission change.
