Subject: selftests/vm: add file/shmem MADV_COLLAPSE selftest for cleared pmd
Date: Thu, 22 Sep 2022 15:40:45 -0700
This test tests that MADV_COLLAPSE acting on file/shmem memory for which
(1) the file extent mapping by the memory is already a huge page in the
page cache, and (2) the pmd mapping this memory in the target process is
none.
In practice, (1)+(2) is the state left over after khugepaged has
successfully collapsed file/shmem memory for a target VMA, but the memory
has not yet been refaulted. So, this test in-effect tests MADV_COLLAPSE
racing with khugepaged to collapse the memory first.
