Hi guys,
This test has been failing on my laptop for a few weeks.
Any idea why?
FWIW, the test still works for me (after enabling it with "ulimit -l 2097152").
There's nothing logged in tests/functional/x86_64/test_memlock*/*,
which itself seems like a bug.
Is there maybe any hint in meson-logs/testlog-thorough.txt instead?
Ah, yes, there it is:
TAP version 13
not ok 1 test_memlock.MemlockTest.test_memlock_off
ok 2 test_memlock.MemlockTest.test_memlock_on
ok 3 test_memlock.MemlockTest.test_memlock_onfault

So it seems there's some non-zero amount of memory locked in the process, likely nothing
to do with what we're trying to test, but we're asserting anyway.
Digging into /proc/pic/smaps, I have:

It's not labeled in /proc/pid/maps, so without more work I don't know where it comes from,
but *something* in my system libraries has asked for 4 pages of locked memory.
