The patch titled
Subject: selftests/cgroup: replace hardcoded page size values in test_zswap
has been added to the -mm mm-new branch. Its filename is
selftests-cgroup-replace-hardcoded-page-size-values-in-test_zswap.patch
This patch will shortly appear at
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/selftests-cgroup-replace-hardcoded-page-size-values-in-test_zswap.patch
This patch will later appear in the mm-new branch at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Note, mm-new is a provisional staging ground for work-in-progress
patches, and acceptance into mm-new is a notification for others take
notice and to finish up reviews. Please do not hesitate to respond to
review feedback and post updated versions to replace or incrementally
fixup patches in mm-new.
The mm-new branch of mm.git is not included in linux-next
If a few days of testing in mm-new is successful, the patch will me moved
into mm.git's mm-unstable branch, which is included in linux-next
Before you just go and hit "reply", please:
a) Consider who else should be cc'ed
b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well
c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a
reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's
*** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code ***
The -mm tree is included into linux-next via various
branches at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
and is updated there most days

Subject: selftests/cgroup: replace hardcoded page size values in test_zswap
Date: Fri, 24 Apr 2026 12:00:56 +0800
test_zswap uses hardcoded values of 4095 and 4096 throughout as page
stride and page size, which are only correct on systems with a 4K page
size. On architectures with larger pages (e.g., 64K on arm64 or ppc64),
these constants cause memory to be touched at sub-page granularity,
leading to inefficient access patterns and incorrect page count
calculations, which can cause test failures.
Replace all hardcoded 4095 and 4096 values with a global pagesize variable
initialized from sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE) at startup, and remove the
redundant local sysconf() calls scattered across individual functions. No
functional change on 4K page size systems.
