selftests/mm/charge_reserved_hugetlb: drop mount size for hugetlbfs

2026-03-04T12:21:46+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1aa1dd9cc595917882fb6db67725442956f79607 ] charge_reserved_hugetlb.sh mounts a hugetlbfs instance at /mnt/huge with a fixed size of 256M. On systems with large base hugepages (e.g. 512MB), this is smaller than a single hugepage, so the hugetlbfs mount ends up with zero capacity (often visible as size=0 in mount output). As a result, write_to_hugetlbfs fails with ENOMEM and the test can hang waiting for progress. === Error log === # uname -r 6.12.0-xxx.el10.aarch64+64k #./charge_reserved_hugetlb.sh -cgroup-v2 # ----------------------------------------- ... # nr hugepages = 10 # writing cgroup limit: 5368709120 # writing reseravation limit: 5368709120 ... # write_to_hugetlbfs: Error mapping the file: Cannot allocate memory # Waiting for hugetlb memory reservation to reach size 2684354560. # 0 # Waiting for hugetlb memory reservation to reach size 2684354560. # 0 ... # mount |grep /mnt/huge none on /mnt/huge type hugetlbfs (rw,relatime,seclabel,pagesize=512M,size=0) # grep -i huge /proc/meminfo ...

selftests/mm: convert page_size to unsigned long

2026-03-04T12:20:07+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0bf19a357e0eaf03e757ac9482c45a797e40157a ] Cppcheck warning: int result is assigned to long long variable. If the variable is long long to avoid loss of information, then you have loss of information. This patch changes the type of page_size from 'unsigned int' to 'unsigned long' instead of using ULL suffixes. Changing hpage_size to 'unsigned long' was considered, but since gethugepage() expects an int, this change was avoided.

selftests/mm: skip soft-dirty tests when CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY is disabled

2025-10-19T14:34:00+00:00

commit 0389c305ef56cbadca4cbef44affc0ec3213ed30 upstream. The madv_populate and soft-dirty kselftests currently fail on systems where CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY is disabled. Introduce a new helper softdirty_supported() into vm_util.c/h to ensure tests are properly skipped when the feature is not enabled.

selftests/mm: fix a build failure on powerpc

2025-05-18T06:24:52+00:00

commit 8cf6ecb18baac867585fe1cba5dde6dbf3b6d29a upstream. The compiler is unaware of the size of code generated by the ".rept" assembler directive. This results in the compiler emitting branch instructions where the offset to branch to exceeds the maximum allowed value, resulting in build failures like the following: CC protection_keys /tmp/ccypKWAE.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/ccypKWAE.s:2073: Error: operand out of range (0x0000000000020158 is not between 0xffffffffffff8000 and 0x0000000000007ffc) /tmp/ccypKWAE.s:2509: Error: operand out of range (0x0000000000020130 is not between 0xffffffffffff8000 and 0x0000000000007ffc) Fix the issue by manually adding nop instructions using the preprocessor.

selftests/mm: compaction_test: support platform with huge mount of memory

2025-05-18T06:24:52+00:00

commit ab00ddd802f80e31fc9639c652d736fe3913feae upstream. When running mm selftest to verify mm patches, 'compaction_test' case failed on an x86 server with 1TB memory. And the root cause is that it has too much free memory than what the test supports. The test case tries to allocate 100000 huge pages, which is about 200 GB for that x86 server, and when it succeeds, it expects it's large than 1/3 of 80% of the free memory in system. This logic only works for platform with 750 GB ( 200 / (1/3) / 80% ) or less free memory, and may raise false alarm for others. Fix it by changing the fixed page number to self-adjustable number according to the real number of free memory.

selftests/mm: generate a temporary mountpoint for cgroup filesystem

2025-04-25T08:47:54+00:00

commit 9c02223e2d9df5cb37c51aedb78f3960294e09b5 upstream. Currently if the filesystem for the cgroups version it wants to use is not mounted charge_reserved_hugetlb.sh and hugetlb_reparenting_test.sh tests will attempt to mount it on the hard coded path /dev/cgroup/memory, deleting that directory when the test finishes. This will fail if there is not a preexisting directory at that path, and since the directory is deleted subsequent runs of the test will fail. Instead of relying on this hard coded directory name use mktemp to generate a temporary directory to use as a mountpoint, fixing both the assumption and the disruption caused by deleting a preexisting directory. This means that if the relevant cgroup filesystem is not already mounted then we rely on having coreutils (which provides mktemp) installed. I suspect that many current users are relying on having things automounted by default, and given that the script relies on bash it's probably not an unreasonable requirement.

selftests/mm: run_vmtests.sh: fix half_ufd_size_MB calculation

2025-03-28T21:03:30+00:00

commit 67a2f86846f244d81601cf2e1552c4656b8556d6 upstream. We noticed that uffd-stress test was always failing to run when invoked for the hugetlb profiles on x86_64 systems with a processor count of 64 or bigger: ... # ------------------------------------ # running ./uffd-stress hugetlb 128 32 # ------------------------------------ # ERROR: invalid MiB (errno=9, @uffd-stress.c:459) ... # [FAIL] not ok 3 uffd-stress hugetlb 128 32 # exit=1 ... The problem boils down to how run_vmtests.sh (mis)calculates the size of the region it feeds to uffd-stress. The latter expects to see an amount of MiB while the former is just giving out the number of free hugepages halved down. This measurement discrepancy ends up violating uffd-stress' assertion on number of hugetlb pages allocated per CPU, causing it to bail out with the error above. This commit fixes that issue by adjusting run_vmtests.sh's half_ufd_size_MB calculation so it properly renders the region size in MiB, as expected, while maintaining all of its original constraints in place.

Revert "selftests/mm: remove local __NR_* definitions"

2025-03-13T12:01:54+00:00

commit 0a7565ee6ec31eb16c0476adbfc1af3f2271cb6b upstream. This reverts commit a5c6bc590094a1a73cf6fa3f505e1945d2bf2461. The general approach described in commit e076eaca5906 ("selftests: break the dependency upon local header files") was taken one step too far here: it should not have been extended to include the syscall numbers. This is because doing so would require per-arch support in tools/include/uapi, and no such support exists. This revert fixes two separate reports of test failures, from Dave Hansen[1], and Li Wang[2]. An excerpt of Dave's report: Before this commit (a5c6bc590094a1a73cf6fa3f505e1945d2bf2461) things are fine.
