selftests: vm: add KSM zero page merging test
Add check_ksm_zero_page_merge() function to test that empty pages are being handled properly. For this, several zero pages are allocated and merged using madvise. If use_zero_pages is enabled, the pages must be shared with the special kernel zero pages; otherwise, they are merged as usual duplicate pages. The test is run as follows: ./ksm_tests -Z Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/6d0caab00d4bdccf5e3791cb95cf6dfd5eb85e45.1626252248.git.zhansayabagdaulet@gmail.comSigned-off-by: Zhansaya Bagdauletkyzy <zhansayabagdaulet@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Pavel Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@soleen.com> Reviewed-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.microsoft.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Shuah Khan <shuah@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
