Subject: [PATCH v9 33/41] KVM: selftests: Test that shared/private status is consistent across processes
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2026 17:35:32 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260728-gmem-inplace-conversion-v9-33-35f9aec2aed2@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260728-gmem-inplace-conversion-v9-0-35f9aec2aed2@google.com>
From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>
Add a test to verify that a guest_memfd's shared/private status is
consistent across processes, and that any shared pages previously mapped in
any process are unmapped from all processes.
The test forks a child process after creating the shared guest_memfd
region so that the second process exists alongside the main process for the
entire test.
The processes then take turns to access memory to check that the
shared/private status is consistent across processes.
