929d5fbf1a selftests/mm: soft-dirty: skip two tests when thp is not available
The test_hugepage test contain two sub tests.  If just reporting one skip
when thp not available, there will be error in the log because the test
count don't match the test plan.  Change to skip two tests by running the
ksft_test_result_skip twice in this case.

Without the fix (run test on thp disabled kernel):
  ./run_vmtests.sh -t soft_dirty

ksefltest_harness.h includes in remaining seltests files, replacing all
relative paths with a non-relative paths using shared -I include path in
lib.mk

Tested with gcc-13.3 and clang-18.1, and cross-compiled successfully on
riscv, arm64, x86_64 and powerpc arch.

c7ba92bcfe testing/selftests/mm: add soft-dirty merge self-test
Assert that we correctly merge VMAs containing VM_SOFTDIRTY flags now that
we correctly handle these as sticky.

In order to do so, we have to account for the fact the pagemap interface
checks soft dirty PTEs and additionally that newly merged VMAs are marked
VM_SOFTDIRTY.

We do this by using use unfaulted anon VMAs, establishing one and clearing
references on that one, before establishing another and merging the two
before checking that soft-dirty is propagated as expected.

We check that this functions correctly with mremap() and mprotect() as
sample cases, because VMA merge of adjacent newly mapped VMAs will
automatically be made soft-dirty due to existing logic which does so.

We are therefore exercising other means of merging VMAs.

fdc3bc3497 ksm_tests: skip hugepage test when Transparent Hugepages are disabled
Some systems (e.g.  minimal or real-time kernels) may not enable
Transparent Hugepages (THP), causing MADV_HUGEPAGE to return EINVAL.  This
patch introduces a runtime check using the existing THP sysfs interface
and skips the hugepage merging test (`-H`) when THP is not available.

To avoid those failures:

  # -----------------------------
  # running ./ksm_tests -H -s 100
  # -----------------------------
  # ksm_tests: MADV_HUGEPAGE: Invalid argument

It's true that CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y is explicitly enabled in
tools/testing/selftests/mm/config, so ideally the runtime environment
should also support THP.

However, in practice, we've found that on some systems:

- THP is disabled at boot time (transparent_hugepage=never)
- Or manually disabled via sysfs
- Or unavailable in RT kernels, containers, or minimal CI environments

In these cases, the test will fail with EINVAL on madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE),
even though the kernel config is correct.

To make the test suite more robust and avoid false negatives, this patch
adds a runtime check for /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled.

If THP is not available, the hugepage test (-H) is skipped with a clear
message.

8b65ef5ad4 selftests/mm: Fix build with _FORTIFY_SOURCE
Add missing flags argument to open(2) call with O_CREAT.

Some tests fail to compile if _FORTIFY_SOURCE is defined (to any valid
value) (together with -O), resulting in similar error messages such as:

  In file included from /usr/include/fcntl.h:342,
                   from gup_test.c:1:
  In function 'open',
      inlined from 'main' at gup_test.c:206:10:
  /usr/include/bits/fcntl2.h:50:11: error: call to '__open_missing_mode' declared with attribute error: open with O_CREAT or O_TMPFILE in second argument needs 3 arguments
     50 |           __open_missing_mode ();
        |           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

_FORTIFY_SOURCE is enabled by default in some distributions, so the
tests are not built by default and are skipped.

open(2) man-page warns about missing flags argument: "if it is not
supplied, some arbitrary bytes from the stack will be applied as the
file mode."

d6e61afb40 selftests/mm: reuse read_pmd_pagesize() in COW selftest
Patch series "mm: (pte|pmd)_mkdirty() should not unconditionally allow for
write access".

This is the follow-up on [1], adding selftests (testing for known issues
we added workarounds for and other issues that haven't been fixed yet),
fixing sparc64, reverting the workarounds, and perform one cleanup.

The patch from [1] was modified slightly (updated/extended patch
description, dropped one unnecessary NOP instruction from the ASM in
__pte_mkhwwrite()).

Retested on x86_64 and sparc64 (sun4u in QEMU).

I scanned most architectures to make sure their (pte|pmd)_mkdirty()
handling is correct.  To be sure, we can run the selftests and find out if
other architectures are still affectes (loongarch was fixed recently as
well).

Based on master for now. I don't expect surprises regarding mm-tress, but
I can rebase if there are any problems.


This patch (of 6):

The COW selftest can deal with THP not being configured.  So move error
handling of read_pmd_pagesize() into the callers such that we can reuse it
in the COW selftest.
