Linux kernel source tree
The test case is obviously broken on aarch64 because non-4KB guest
page size is supported. The guest page size on aarch64 could be 4KB,
16KB or 64KB.
This supports variable guest page size, mostly for aarch64.
- The host determines the guest page size when virtual machine is
created. The value is also passed to guest through the synchronization
area.
- The number of guest pages are unknown until the virtual machine
is to be created. So all the related macros are dropped. Instead,
their values are dynamically calculated based on the guest page
size.
- The static checks on memory sizes and pages becomes dependent
on guest page size, which is unknown until the virtual machine
is about to be created. So all the static checks are converted
to dynamic checks, done in check_memory_sizes().
- As the address passed to madvise() should be aligned to host page,
the size of page chunk is automatically selected, other than one
page.
- MEM_TEST_MOVE_SIZE has fixed and non-working 64KB. It will be
consolidated in next patch. However, the comments about how
it's calculated has been correct.
- All other changes included in this patch are almost mechanical
replacing '4096' with 'guest_page_size'.

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 Restructured Text 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.
