Sorry, John, I still cannot follow..

As I said before uffd-common.[ch] was for uffd stress/unit tests.  I
confess my fault to not have named it uffd-test-common.[ch] already.

Actually, given that there is nothing *except* test code in this
directory, I think your original choice of file names is just right.


I think it's fine to keep uffd_*() helpers in vm_util.[ch] for now, until
it grows.  Just like if one day we'll have a pagemap.c test we don't
necessary need to move pagemap_*() helpers from vm_utils.[ch] into
pagemap.[ch].  It just keeps common test helpers.

Can we avoid linking those into other tests in whatever way?  Maybe
renaming it to uffd-test-common.[ch] may be cleaner?


It sounds like you are suggesting this:

$(OUTPUT)/uffd-stress:          uffd-common.c uffd-test-common.c
$(OUTPUT)/uffd-unit-tests:      uffd-common.c uffd-test-common.c
$(OUTPUT)/hugepage-mremap:      uffd-test-common.c
$(OUTPUT)/write_to_hugetlbfs:   uffd-test-common.c
$(OUTPUT)/ksm_functional_tests: uffd-test-common.c

...approximately. Do I have that correct? I can arrange it that way
if you feel it's a better end result. (And it's better than leaving
uffd*() helpers in vm_utils, imho.)

thanks,
