Subject: [LTP] [PATCH v6] hugemmap43: Migrate truncate_sigbus_versus_oom from libhugetlbfs
Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2026 07:27:08 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260820015708.46189-1-samir@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
Some kernels have a bug in the positioning of the test against
i_size. This bug means that attempting to instantiate a page
beyond the end of a hugepage file can result in an OOM and SIGKILL
instead of the correct SIGBUS.
Signed-off-by: Samir Mulani <samir@linux.ibm.com>

v6:
1. Fixed subject line to use imperative mood.
2. Dropped vague opening sentence from the commit description.
3. Fixed grammar: "Some kernel have" -> "Some kernels have".
4. Added 'static' keyword to setup() and cleanup().
5. Zero-initialized struct sigaction sa with '= {}' and sigemptyset().
6. Replaced SA_SIGINFO with sa.sa_flags = 0 to match sa_handler usage.
7. Removed dead totpages assignment from setup().
8. Added SAFE_MUNMAP() for p and q at end of run_test() to fix fd/mmap
leak on -i N runs.
9. Fixed cleanup() guard from 'fd > 0' to 'fd != -1' to correctly
handle fd value 0.
