lib/test_vmalloc.c: minor fixes to test_vmalloc.c

2026-01-21T03:24:47+00:00

If PAGE_SIZE is larger than 4k and if you have a system with a large number of CPUs, this test can require a very large amount of memory leading to oom-killer firing. Given the type of allocation, the kernel won't have anything to kill, causing the system to stall. Add a parameter to the test_vmalloc driver to represent the number of times a percpu object will be allocated. Calculate this in test_vmalloc.sh to be 90% of available memory or the current default of 35000, whichever is smaller.

selftests/mm: give scripts execute permission

2023-07-14T16:24:31+00:00

When run under run_vmtests.sh, test scripts were failing to run with "permission denied" due to the scripts not being executable. It is also annoying not to be able to directly invoke run_vmtests.sh, which is solved by giving also it the execute permission.

selftests/vm: rename selftests/vm to selftests/mm

2023-01-19T01:12:56+00:00

Rename selftets/vm to selftests/mm for being more consistent with the code, documentation, and tools directories, and won't be confused with virtual machines.
