Subject: [PATCH RESEND v1 0/5] selftests/mm: Handle unsupported and transient test conditions
Date: Wed, 22 Jul 2026 10:11:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260722091219.61504-1-usama.anjum@arm.com> (raw)

Several MM selftests report failures when the test environment lacks
an underlying prerequisite, such as fallocate() support, MADV_REMOVE,
local page-cache semantics, or swap.

This series converts those unsupported cases to SKIP while preserving
failures for unexpected errors. It also allows migration tests to retry
transient move_pages() failures.

Tested on an arm64 Ampere system using an NFS root filesystem. The MM
selftest run completed with no failures or errors anymore. Also verified
on x86_64 to make sure they don't cause any unexpected errors.

Muhammad Usama Anjum (5):
  selftests/mm: skip COW tmpfile cases when fallocate() is unsupported
  selftests/mm: skip guard hole-punch test if MADV_REMOVE is unsupported
  selftests/mm: skip khugepaged swap tests without swap
  selftests/mm: skip page-cache hwpoison tests on NFS
  selftests/mm: retry migration failures for the full runtime
