Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 3/3] selftests/bpf: Add tests for memory usage for arena
Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2026 22:25:00 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260716142746.8794-3-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260716142746.8794-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev>
Allocate and free arena pages, both from BPF and via user-space fault-in,
and check that the map's memlock in fdinfo tracks the number of pages that
are actually populated.
Like the other arena tests it runs serially.
test:
./test_progs -a arena_mem_usage
#5 arena_mem_usage:OK
Summary: 1/0 PASSED, 0 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED
