[PATCH v3] selftests: add swap() macro to kselftest.h

From: Piotr Zarycki

Date: Thu Jun 25 2026 - 03:11:01 EST


Add swap() to tools/testing/selftests/kselftest.h with an #ifndef guard.

Guard the local swap() definition in mm/uffd-stress.c with #ifndef to
prevent a redefinition warning.

Use swap() in hyperv_tlb_flush.c to replace the open-coded PTE swap and
remove the TODO comment.

Changes in v3:
- Add #ifndef guard to mm/uffd-stress.c to fix a redefinition warning;
uffd-stress.c defines its own swap() without a guard, which conflicts
when kselftest.h is included first via uffd-common.h.

Changes in v2:
- Move swap() from tools/include/linux/kernel.h to kselftest.h; kernel.h
breaks perf (swap is used there as a function pointer call).
