Subject: [LTP] [PATCH v2] getrusage03: mlock all address space for process calling consume_mb
Date: Wed,  9 Feb 2022 16:52:13 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220209085213.2882229-1-liwang@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220208132414.2852202-1-liwang@redhat.com>

It is trying to test without swap happen to guarantee less disturbing
for the ’->ru_maxrss‘ counting.

Therefore add mlockall() to prevent that memory address space
of the calling process from being paged to the swap area.

Due to that lock needs CAP_IPC_LOCK capability and child can not
inherit memory locks from parent, here add the definition and put
the mlockall() in consume_mb.
