Subject: [to-be-updated] tools-testing-selftests-mm-test-virtual-page-offset-merge-behaviour.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Thu, 06 Aug 2026 16:14:09 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260806231410.287121F000E9@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)


The quilt patch titled
     Subject: tools/testing/selftests/mm: test virtual page offset merge behaviour
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     tools-testing-selftests-mm-test-virtual-page-offset-merge-behaviour.patch

This patch was dropped because an updated version will be issued

------------------------------------------------------
From: "Lorenzo Stoakes (ARM)" <ljs@kernel.org>
Subject: tools/testing/selftests/mm: test virtual page offset merge behaviour
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2026 15:38:37 +0100

While maintaining virtual page offsets for VMAs has no impact for most
merge cases, it does impact MAP_PRIVATE-mapped file-backed mappings which
happen to have matching page offset but not matching virtual page offset.

Assert this behaviour by attempting to map an unfaulted MAP_PRIVATE-memfd
region with a faulted one with compatible file page offsets but
incompatible virtual page offsets.
