Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] selftests/mm: Add a new test for madv and hugetlb

Create a selftest that exercises the race between page faults and
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) in the same huge page. Do it by running two
threads that touches the huge page and madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) at the same
time.

In case of a SIGBUS coming at pagefault, the test should fail, since we
hit the bug.

The test doesn't have a signal handler, and if it fails, it fails like
the following

----------------------------------
running ./hugetlb_fault_after_madv
----------------------------------
./run_vmtests.sh: line 186: 595563 Bus error (core dumped) "$@"
[FAIL]

This selftest goes together with the fix of the bug[1] itself.

I've noticed that this change breaks some of the uffd-stress tests further down
the file, because you have freed previously reserved hugepages that the test
requires to run. I notice that the patch is already in mm-stable, so perhaps its
possible to submit a patch that does a save and restore?

Although I'm not sure if that might be tricky because the previous reservation
is per-size and per-node (our CI does this on the kernel command line), and I
suspect if you want just 1 huge page in the entire system you won't be able to
get back to the previous state by just restoring this value?

These are the failing tests for reference:

# ------------------------------------
# running ./uffd-stress hugetlb 128 32
# ------------------------------------
# nr_pages: 64, nr_pages_per_cpu: 8
# ERROR: context init failed (errno=12, @uffd-stress.c:254)
# [FAIL]
# --------------------------------------------
# running ./uffd-stress hugetlb-private 128 32
# --------------------------------------------
# nr_pages: 64, nr_pages_per_cpu: 8
# ERROR: context init failed (errno=12, @uffd-stress.c:254)
# [FAIL]

Thanks,
Ryan

Actually on closer inspection, I don't think this will be a problem; simply
saving and restoring the value around the test will be sufficient.

I also notice that the binary for the new test is not added to the .gitignore,
which is a minor annoyance.
