[PATCH 3/4] selftests: memcg: test high limit for single entry allocation

From: Shakeel Butt
Date: Thu Feb 10 2022 - 03:15:28 EST


Test the enforcement of memory.high limit for large amount of memory
allocation within a single kernel entry. There are valid use-cases
where the application can trigger large amount of memory allocation
within a single syscall e.g. mlock() or mmap(MAP_POPULATE). Make sure
memory.high limit enforcement works for such use-cases.
