[PATCH RFC 15/17] KVM: selftests: Test that shared tmpfs resource pool size limit is respected

From: Ackerley Tng via B4 Relay

Date: Fri Sep 25 2026 - 20:52:24 EST


From: Ackerley Tng <ackerleytng@xxxxxxxxxx>

Verify that allocating memory across guest_memfd instances sharing a
tmpfs resource pool fails with ENOSPC when the total allocation exceeds
the pool capacity.
