Since the memfd pages associated with a udmabuf may be migrated as part of udmabuf create, we need to verify the data coherency after successful migration. The new tests added in this patch try to do just that using 4k sized pages and also 2 MB sized huge pages for the memfd. Successful completion of the tests would mean that there is no disconnect between the memfd pages and the ones associated with a udmabuf. And, these tests can also be augmented in the future to test newer udmabuf features (such as handling memfd hole punch). The idea for these tests comes from a patch by Mike Kravetz here: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2023-June/410623.html v1->v2: (suggestions from Shuah) - Use ksft_* functions to print and capture results of tests - Use appropriate KSFT_* status codes for exit() - Add Mike Kravetz's suggested-by tag Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240624063952.1572359-10-vivek.kasireddy@intel.com Signed-off-by: Vivek Kasireddy <vivek.kasireddy@intel.com> Suggested-by: Mike Kravetz <mike.kravetz@oracle.com> Acked-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Acked-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Cc: Shuah Khan <shuah@kernel.org> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com> Cc: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@nvidia.com> Cc: Dongwon Kim <dongwon.kim@intel.com> Cc: Junxiao Chang <junxiao.chang@intel.com> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
