Message-ID: <20231220214716.76CB2C433CA@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: selftests: secretmem: floor the memory size to the multiple of page_size
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
selftests-secretmem-floor-the-memory-size-to-the-multiple-of-page_size.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch

Subject: selftests: secretmem: floor the memory size to the multiple of page_size
Date: Thu, 14 Dec 2023 15:19:30 +0500
The "locked-in-memory size" limit per process can be non-multiple of
page_size. The mmap() fails if we try to allocate locked-in-memory with
same size as the allowed limit if it isn't multiple of the page_size
because mmap() rounds off the memory size to be allocated to next multiple
of page_size.
Fix this by flooring the length to be allocated with mmap() to the
previous multiple of the page_size.
This was getting triggered on KernelCI regularly because of different
ulimit settings which wasn't multiple of the page_size. Find logs
here: https://linux.kernelci.org/test/plan/id/657654bd8e81e654fae13532/
The bug in was present from the time test was first added.
