[RFC PATCH v3 10/11] tools/testing/selftests: test relocate anon in split huge page test

From: Lorenzo Stoakes
Date: Sat May 03 2025 - 17:15:36 EST


It's useful to explicitly test splitting of huge pages with
MREMAP_RELOCATE_ANON set, as this exercises the undo logic and ensures that
it functions correctly.

Expand the tests to do so in the instance where anon mremap() occurs, and
utilise the shared sys_mremap() function to allow for specification of the
new mremap flag (which would otherwise be filtered by glibc).
