Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] selftests/mm: add a uffd test for re-registering during UFFDIO_COPY
Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2026 09:11:31 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261102081140.201987-3-azpijr@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261102081140.201987-1-azpijr@gmail.com>
Re-register the destination without WP while a UFFDIO_COPY_MODE_WP copy
waits for its source page, then check that the copy fails with -EINVAL
and leaves no uffd-wp bit behind. This covers all memory types.
Signed-off-by: Jose A. Perez de Azpillaga <azpijr@gmail.com>

Changes in v2:
- "all memory types" in the commit message
- rename copy to result
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/20261029221129.89068-3-azpijr@gmail.com
