LTP syscalls memfd_create04 failed on arm64 devices.
Test PASS on arm, i386 and x86_64.

We are bisecting this failure on arm64.

Test case failed log,
memfd_create04.c:68: INFO: Attempt to create file using 64kB huge page size
memfd_create04.c:76: FAIL: memfd_create() failed unexpectedly: ENOENT (2)

Strace output:
memfd_create(\"tfile\", MFD_HUGETLB|0x40000000) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)

Test case Description,

/*
* Test: Validating memfd_create() with MFD_HUGETLB and MFD_HUGE_x flags.
*
* Test cases: Attempt to create files in the hugetlbfs filesystem using
* different huge page sizes.
*
* Test logic: memfd_create() should return non-negative value (fd)
* if the system supports that particular huge page size.
* On success, fd is returned.
* On failure, -1 is returned with ENODEV error.
*/

Test code snippet:
<>
check_hugepage_support(&tflag);
tst_res(TINFO,
"Attempt to create file using %s huge page size",
tflag.h_size);

fd = sys_memfd_create("tfile", MFD_HUGETLB | tflag.flag);
if (fd < 0) {
if (errno == tflag.exp_err)
tst_res(TPASS, "Test failed as expected\n");
else
tst_brk(TFAIL | TERRNO,
"memfd_create() failed unexpectedly");
return;
}
<>

Steps to reproduce:
          - cd /opt/ltp/testcases/bin/
          - ./memfd_create04

https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/blob/master/testcases/kernel/syscalls/memfd_create/memfd_create04.c#L75

-ENOENT is what you get when hugetlbfs is not mounted, so this hints to

I see that Mike Kravetz suggested not putting this patch into stable in

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/befca227-cb8a-8f47-617d-e3bf9972bfec@oracle.com/

but it was picked through the autosel mechanism later.

So does that mean that Linus's tree shows this LTP failure as well?

This does seem to fix a real issue, as shown by the LTP test noticing
it, so should the error code value be fixed in Linus's tree?

I think autosel is way too aggressive. This is an excellent example.

Yes, according to
https://qa-reports.linaro.org/lkft/linux-mainline-oe/tests/ltp-syscalls-tests/memfd_create04
mainline has the same testcase failure, it started happening between
v5.4-10135-gc3bfc5dd73c6 and v5.4-10271-g596cf45cbf6e, when the patch
was originally merged into 5.5-rc1.

No idea what to conclude from the testcase failure, let's see if Mike has
any suggestions.

Why?  It fixes a bug, the text says so, and the code shows it.  This is
a great example of a patch that autosel _should_ be picking up.  Now the
fact that it happens to break existing functionality is not an
autosel-detectable thing.  Especially as that same functionality is now
broken in Linus's tree :)

Autosel assumes that patches are correct, it can't know that they are
buggy.  That should have been weeded out by the developers and testing
before they hit Linus's tree.

Thanks for isolating to this patch!

There are dependencies between arch specific code and arch independent code
during the setup of hugetlb sizes/mounts.  Let me take a closer look at the
arm64 code and get access to a system for debug.

Before I started investigating, Jan Stancek found and fixed the issue.

Applied upstream as commit 15f0ec941f4f ("mm/hugetlbfs: fix
for_each_hstate() loop in init_hugetlbfs_fs()").

I didn't add a cc: stable, because the original didn't have one, and
the "Fixes:" tag should make it happen.

Not "forgot", but I've pulled a couple of other things, and done my
usual build tests etc. I tend batch up the pulls and pushes a bit,
sorry for not making that clear.

But I've pushed it all out now.
