The quilt patch titled Subject: selftests: secretmem: floor the memory size to the multiple of page_size has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was selftests-secretmem-floor-the-memory-size-to-the-multiple-of-page_size.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
------------------------------------------------------ From: Muhammad Usama Anjum usama.anjum@collabora.com Subject: selftests: secretmem: floor the memory size to the multiple of page_size Date: Thu, 14 Dec 2023 15:19:30 +0500
The "locked-in-memory size" limit per process can be non-multiple of page_size. The mmap() fails if we try to allocate locked-in-memory with same size as the allowed limit if it isn't multiple of the page_size because mmap() rounds off the memory size to be allocated to next multiple of page_size.
Fix this by flooring the length to be allocated with mmap() to the previous multiple of the page_size.
This was getting triggered on KernelCI regularly because of different ulimit settings which wasn't multiple of the page_size. Find logs here: https://linux.kernelci.org/test/plan/id/657654bd8e81e654fae13532/ The bug in was present from the time test was first added.
