[PATCH v13 18/24] selftests/vm: fix an assertion in test_pkey_alloc_exhaust()

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

 



The maximum number of keys that can be allocated has to
take into consideration, that some keys are reserved by
the architecture for   specific   purpose. Hence cannot
be allocated.

Fix the assertion in test_pkey_alloc_exhaust()
