[PATCH v2 1/4] selftests: vm: add KSM merge test

From: Zhansaya Bagdauletkyzy
Date: Wed Jul 14 2021 - 04:56:21 EST


Add check_ksm_merge() function to check the basic merging feature of
KSM. First, some number of identical pages are allocated and the
MADV_MERGEABLE advice is given to merge these pages. Then, pages_shared
and pages_sharing values are compared with the expected numbers using
assert_ksm_pages_count() function. The number of pages can be changed
using -p option.
