Subject: [PATCH i-g-t v3 3/8] tests/intel/xe_madvise: Add dontneed-before-
mmap subtest

This test validates kernel behavior when mapping a BO that was already
marked as purgeable and purged before mmap. After purging the BO under
memory pressure, the test attempts to mmap and access it. The kernel should
trigger SIGBUS or SIGSEGV when accessing the purged mapping, confirming
that purged memory is properly invalidated.

why this __attribute__? Any compiler warning? Can't it be handled like

case 0:

default:

    *ptr = 0;

    igt_assert_f(false, "Access to purged mmap should trigger SIGBUS, got sig=%d\n", sig);

break;

as you are doing intentional fallout from case 0 to default? 

+		default:
+			igt_assert_f(false,
+				     "Access to purged mmap should trigger
SIGBUS, got sig=%d\n",
+				     sig);
+			break;
