------------------------------------------------------ From: aigourensheng shechenglong001@gmail.com Subject: selftests/mm:fix test_prctl_fork_exec return failure Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2024 01:29:34 -0400
After calling fork() in test_prctl_fork_exec(), the global variable ksm_full_scans_fd is initialized to 0 in the child process upon entering the main function of ./ksm_functional_tests.
In the function call chain test_child_ksm() -> __mmap_and_merge_range -> ksm_merge-> ksm_get_full_scans, start_scans = ksm_get_full_scans() will return an error. Therefore, the value of ksm_full_scans_fd needs to be initialized before calling test_child_ksm in the child process.
