That's great, many thanks! > Let me know what else I can run for validation? > Do you know of any specific tests for validation of lazy mmu feature? I don't think there is - lazy MMU is not supposed to have any observable effect, all we can do is exercise the paths that use it and check that nothing explodes. That said it wouldn't hurt to run the mm kselftests: make -C tools/testing/selftests/ TARGETS=mm Thanks! - Kevin
