[PATCH v10 5/5] selftest: add a testcase of ksm zero pages

From: Yang Yang
Date: Thu May 25 2023 - 01:54:56 EST


From: xu xin <xu.xin16@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add a function test_unmerge_zero_page() to test the functionality on
unsharing and counting ksm-placed zero pages and counting of this patch
series.

test_unmerge_zero_page() actually contains four subjct test objects:
(1) whether the count of ksm zero pages can update correctly after merging;
(2) whether the count of ksm zero pages can update correctly after
unmerging by madvise(...MADV_UNMERGEABLE);
(3) whether the count of ksm zero pages can update correctly after
unmerging by triggering write fault.
(4) whether ksm zero pages are really unmerged.
