[PATCH v2 1/9] selftests/vm: add test to measure MADV_UNMERGEABLE performance
From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Fri Oct 21 2022 - 06:12:22 EST
Let's add a test to measure performance of KSM breaking not triggered
via COW, but triggered by disabling KSM on an area filled with KSM pages
via MADV_UNMERGEABLE.
