Thanks again for your tests :)
the case needs most memory is 'thp0[4|5]_3 -n 1 -N 300', which require
300 huge pages(600Mb memory) at least,
also there's some memory limitation, such as
/proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes, so I think 1Gb free memory is enough
to test the serial cases, it's better to give some kind comments when
memory is low, what I can think of is to print out
the MemFree when starting to test:
e.g:
memfree= read_meminfo("MemFree:");
tst_resm(TINFO, "The system has %ld memory left before starting", memfree);
if (memfree < 1G)
tst_resm(TINFO, "The system has low memory, which will cause the
case fail");
I'll send v3 to include it.
Thanks,
Zhouping
