Subject: [PATCH v1] selftests/mm: static process_madvise() wrapper for guard-pages
Date: Tue,  7 Jan 2025 14:29:35 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250107142937.1870478-1-ryan.roberts@arm.com> (raw)

The recently introduced guard-pages mm selftest uses the
process_madvise() syscall, a wrapper for which was added to glibc v2.36.
For those of us stuck with older distributions this causes a compile
error when compiling the mm selftests. For example Ubuntu 22.04 uses
glibc 2.35, which does not have the wrapper.

To workaround the issue, let's introduce our own static
process_madvise() wrapper that uses glibc's syscall() helper.

While we are at it, add the guard-page test suite to run_vmtests.sh so
that it can be automatically run by CI systems.

Signed-off-by: Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts@arm.com>

Applies on top of mm-unstable (f349e79bfbf3)

Thanks,
Ryan
