[PATCH v18 09/24] selftests/vm/pkeys: Fix assertion in pkey_disable_set/clear()

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

 



From: Ram Pai <linuxram@xxxxxxxxxx>

In some cases, a pkey's bits need not necessarily change
in a way that the value of the pkey register increases
when performing a pkey_disable_set() or decreases when
performing a pkey_disable_clear().

For example, on powerpc, if a pkey's current state is
PKEY_DISABLE_ACCESS and we perform a pkey_write_disable()
on it, the bits still remain the same. We will observe
something similar when the pkey's current state is 0 and
a pkey_access_enable() is performed on it.

Either case would cause some assertions to fail. This
fixes the problem.
