This function should be defined in this patch. Going through
implementation available in Patch-3/9. In that below code used

vram_size = xe_visible_vram_size(fd, 0);

What it returns in igfx platforms? Instead we can use

/* Purgeable BO either in VRAM or SMEM */
mem_size = xe_has_vram(pf_fd)?xe_visible_vram_size(fd,
0):igt_get_total_ram_mb() << 20;
if (vram_size > 0) {
/* dGPU: pressure VRAM to trigger purgeable reclaim */
mem_size = vram_size;
} else {
/*
* iGPU: purgeable BOs reside in system memory. Use *total*
* RAM (not just available) as the baseline so that we
always
* over-commit regardless of how much is already in use.
*/
mem_size = igt_get_total_ram_mb() << 20;
}

static bool purgeable_mark_and_verify_purged(int fd, uint32_t vm,
uint64_t addr, size_t size) --> this should be part of this patch
{
uint32_t retained;

/* Mark as DONTNEED */
retained = xe_vm_madvise_purgeable(fd, vm, addr, size,
DRM_XE_VMA_PURGEABLE_STATE_DONTNEED);

if (retained != 1)

So here if BO was purged after above call it'll return 0, so if (0 != 1)
will be true and it'll return false.

return false;

/* Trigger memory pressure */
trigger_memory_pressure(fd, vm);

/* Verify purged */
retained = xe_vm_madvise_purgeable(fd, vm, addr, size,
DRM_XE_VMA_PURGEABLE_STATE_WILLNEED);
return retained == 0;

}

static void test_purged_mmap_blocked(int fd)
{
uint32_t bo, vm;
uint64_t addr = PURGEABLE_ADDR;
size_t bo_size = PURGEABLE_BO_SIZE;
struct drm_xe_gem_mmap_offset mmo = {};
void *ptr;

purgeable_setup_simple_bo(fd, &vm, &bo, addr, bo_size, false);
if (!purgeable_mark_and_verify_purged(fd, vm, addr, bo_size)) {

Here if returned false from above which is basically if BO was purged
retained  = 0 then skip is called which is not the intention
gem_close(fd, bo);
xe_vm_destroy(fd, vm);
igt_skip("Unable to induce purge on this platform/config");
}
