Subject: [PATCH 20/53] selftests/mm: add atexit() and signal handlers to thp_settings
Date: Mon, 6 Apr 2026 17:17:02 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260406141735.2179309-21-rppt@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260406141735.2179309-1-rppt@kernel.org>
From: "Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" <rppt@kernel.org>
khugepaged registers atexit() and signal handlers that ensure that THP
settings are restored regardless of how the test exited.
Make these handlers available for all users of thp_settings.
The call to thp_save_settings() installs thp_restore_settings as the
atexit() callback and makes sure that signals that kill a process would
still call exit() and atexit() callback.
Update child process in tests using thp_settings to use _exit() instead
of exit() to avoid altering THP settings in the middle of a test.
