selftests/mm: run all tests from run_vmtests.sh
It is very unclear to me how one is supposed to run all the mm selftests consistently and get clear results. Most of the test programs are launched by both run_vmtests.sh and run_kselftest.sh: hugepage-mmap hugepage-shm map_hugetlb hugepage-mremap hugepage-vmemmap hugetlb-madvise map_fixed_noreplace gup_test gup_longterm uffd-unit-tests uffd-stress compaction_test on-fault-limit map_populate mlock-random-test mlock2-tests mrelease_test mremap_test thuge-gen virtual_address_range va_high_addr_switch mremap_dontunmap hmm-tests madv_populate memfd_secret ksm_tests ksm_functional_tests soft-dirty cow However, of this set, when launched by run_vmtests.sh, some of the programs are invoked multiple times with different arguments. When invoked by run_kselftest.sh, they are invoked without arguments (and as a consequence, some fail immediately). Some test programs are only launched by run_vmtests.sh: test_vmalloc.sh And some test programs and only launched by run_kselftest.sh: khugepaged migration mkdirty transhuge-stress split_huge_page_test mdwe_test write_to_hugetlbfs Furthermore, run_vmtests.sh is invoked by run_kselftest.sh, so in this case all the test programs invoked by both scripts are run twice! Needless to say, this is a bit of a mess. In the absence of fully understanding the history here, it looks to me like the best solution is to launch ALL test programs from run_vmtests.sh, and ONLY invoke run_vmtests.sh from run_kselftest.sh. This way, we get full control over the parameters, each program is only invoked the intended number of times, and regardless of which script is used, the same tests get run in the same way. The only drawback is that if using run_kselftest.sh, it's top-level tap result reporting reports only a single test and it fails if any of the contained tests fail. I don't see this as a big deal though since we still see all the nested reporting from multiple layers. The other issue with this is that all of run_vmtests.sh must execute within a single kselftest timeout period, so let's increase that to something more suitable. In the Makefile, TEST_GEN_PROGS will compile and install the tests and will add them to the list of tests that run_kselftest.sh will run. TEST_GEN_FILES will compile and install the tests but will not add them to the test list. So let's move all the programs from TEST_GEN_PROGS to TEST_GEN_FILES so that they are built but not executed by run_kselftest.sh. Note that run_vmtests.sh is added to TEST_PROGS, which means it ends up in the test list. (the lack of "_GEN" means it won't be compiled, but simply copied).
