[PATCH v2 33/53] selftests/mm: hmm-tests: add setup of HugeTLB pages

From: Mike Rapoport

Date: Sat Apr 18 2026 - 07:07:21 EST


From: "Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" <rppt@xxxxxxxxxx>

hmm-tests skips HugeTLB tests if there are no free huge pages prepared by a
wrapper script.

Add setup of HugeTLB pages to the test and make sure that the original
settings are restored on the test exit.

Since kselftest_harness runs fixture setup and the tests in child
processes, use HUGETLB_SETUP_DEFAULT_PAGES() that defines a constructor
that runs in the main process and add verification that there are enough
free huge pages to the tests that use them.

Replace exit() calls with _exit() to avoid restoring HugeTLB settings in
the middle of test and use SIGLILL to kill a child process in
hmm_cow_in_device test to avoid interference with signal handlers in
hugepage_restore_settings().
