Subject: selftests/vm: Only run 128TBswitch with 5-level paging
Date: Mon, 27 Jun 2022 18:39:12 +0200
The test va_128TBswitch.c expects to be able to pass mmap an address hint
and length that cross the address 1<<47. This is not possible without
5-level page tables, so the test fails.
The test is already only run on 64-bit powerpc and x86 archs, but this
patch adds an additional check that skips the test if PG_TABLE_LEVELS < 5.
There is precedent for checking /proc/config.gz in selftests, e.g. in
selftests/firmware.
Running the tests produces the desired output:
sudo make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=vm run_tests
---------------------------
running ./va_128TBswitch.sh
---------------------------
./va_128TBswitch.sh: PG_TABLE_LEVELS=4, must be >= 5 to run this test
[SKIP]
