[PATCH V2 0/3] mm/debug: Add more arch page table helper tests

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This series adds more arch page table helper tests. The new tests here are
either related to core memory functions and advanced arch pgtable helpers.
This also creates a documentation file enlisting all expected semantics as
suggested by Mike Rapoport (https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/1/30/40).

This series has been tested on arm64 and x86 platforms. There is just one
expected failure on arm64 that will be fixed when we enable THP migration.

[   21.741634] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at mm/debug_vm_pgtable.c:782

which corresponds to

WARN_ON(!pmd_present(pmd_mknotpresent(pmd_mkhuge(pmd))))

There are many TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE and ARCH_HAS_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD
ifdefs scattered across the test. But consolidating all the fallback stubs
is not very straight forward because ARCH_HAS_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_PUD is
not explicitly dependent on ARCH_HAS_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE.

This series has been build tested on many platforms including the ones that
subscribe the test through ARCH_HAS_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE.

This series is based on v5.6-rc7 after applying these following patches.
