Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] selftests/mm: on-fault-limit: run test without root privileges otherwise skip
Date: Thu,  1 Feb 2024 18:05:36 +0500
Message-ID: <20240201130538.1404897-1-usama.anjum@collabora.com>

The mmap() respects rlimit only for normal users. This test should be
run as normal user, without root privileges. Also add back the sudo -u
nobody as run_vmtests.sh is run as root most of the times. Skip the test
instead if sudo isn't present to lower the privileges.

Fixes: b6221771d468 ("selftests/mm: run_vmtests: remove sudo and conform to tap")
