The vmsplice() hugetlb tests have been failing right from the start, and
we documented that in the introducing commit 7dad331be781 ("selftests/vm:
anon_cow: hugetlb tests"):
Note that some tests cases still fail. This will, for example, be
fixed once vmsplice properly uses FOLL_PIN instead of FOLL_GET for
pinning. With 2 MiB and 1 GiB hugetlb on x86_64, the expected
failures are:
Until vmsplice() is changed, these tests will likely keep failing: hugetlb
COW reuse logic is harder to change, because using the same COW reuse logic
as we use for !hugetlb could harm other (sane) users when running out
of free hugetlb pages.
More details can be found in [1], especially around how hugetlb pages
cannot really be overcommitted, and why we don't particularly care about
these vmsplice() leaks for hugetlb -- in contrast to ordinary memory.
These (expected) failures keep confusing people, so flag them accordingly.
Before:
$ ./cow
[...]
Bail out! 8 out of 778 tests failed
# Totals: pass:769 fail:8 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:1 error:0
$ echo $?
1
After:
$ ./cow
[...]
# Totals: pass:769 fail:0 xfail:8 xpass:0 skip:1 error:0
$ echo $?
0
