Bring common functions to a new file while keeping code as much same as
possible. These functions can be used in the new tests. This helps in
avoiding code duplication.

---
Changes in V6:
- Correct header files inclusion

Changes in V5:
Keep moved code as same as possible
- Updated macros names
- Removed macro used to show bit number of dirty bit, added a comment
  instead
- Corrected indentation

* [PATCH v6 2/2] selftests: vm: Add test for Soft-Dirty PTE bit

  Cc: Gabriel Krisman Bertazi, usama.anjum, kernel, Will Deacon,
	linux-kernel, linux-mm, linux-kselftest

From: Gabriel Krisman Bertazi <krisman@collabora.com>

This introduces three tests:
1) Sanity check soft dirty basic semantics: allocate area, clean, dirty,
check if the SD bit is flipped.
2) Check VMA reuse: validate the VM_SOFTDIRTY usage
3) Check soft-dirty on huge pages

This was motivated by Will Deacon's fix commit 912efa17e512 ("mm: proc:
Invalidate TLB after clearing soft-dirty page state"). I was tracking the
same issue that he fixed, and this test would have caught it.

Changes in V6:
- Update VMA reuse sub test to make it more elaborative
- Minor changes in writing to the pages

Output:
TAP version 13
1..5
ok 1 Test test_simple
ok 2 Test test_vma_reuse dirty bit of allocated page
ok 3 Test test_vma_reuse dirty bit of reused address page
ok 4 Test test_hugepage huge page allocation
ok 5 Test test_hugepage huge page dirty bit
 # Totals: pass:5 fail:0 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0

Changes in V5:
- Correct indentation of macros
- Tested by reverting 912efa17e512 and one sub test failed
- Updated the writing values to the memory and added a comment

Changes in V4:
Cosmetic changes
Removed global variables
Replaced ksft_print_msg with ksft_exit_fail_msg to exit the program at
once
Some other minor changes
Correct the authorship of the patch

Changes in V3:
Move test to selftests/vm
Use kselftest macros
Minor updates to make code more maintainable
Add configurations in config file

V2 of this patch:

BTW, I realized that my madv_populate test fails when run without
softdirty support in the kernel. Eventually we should sense support
somehow and skip softdirty tests.

Maybe we can sense by writing to some page and then testing if the page
is reported as softdirty. If it isn't, we know the kernel doesn't
support it (or is extremely buggy :D ).

Such a sense check would be common functionality in the helper file as well.

This commit breaks a pattern in the way tests are run in the current scheme.
Before this commit the only executable (or TEST_PROGS) that was executed was
run_vmselftests.sh. Now both madv_populate and split_huge_page_test are being
run as well.

Not sure what this does but if we add a run entry for split_huge_page_test in
run_vmselftests.sh we wont really need this patch.

I'm not sure the reduction in code size is worth the change in run behavior.

Unless I'm missing something I suggest we revert this patch and add a run entry
for split_huge_page_test in run_vmselftests.sh. I can do this if no one objects.

Cheers,
-- Nico

The run behavior isn't being changed here. Only the build behavior is
being changed as we want to keep the common code in one file. You can
add the run entry as required. I don't know why do you think the
Makefile has changed the run behavior.

Before your commit running
    `make TARGETS=vm; make TARGETS=vm run_tests`
had the following run behavior:
    - The only thing executed via the run_tests wrapper is run_vmtests.sh
    - TAP output is 1/1:
        TAP version 13
        1..1
        # selftests: vm: run_vmtests.sh
        # arm64 ia64 mips64 parisc64 ppc64 ppc64le riscv64 s390x sh64
sparc64 x86_64
        # -----------------------
        # running ./hugepage-mmap
        # -----------------------
        ....

After your commit:
    - Multiple executables (madv_populate, soft-dirty,
split_huge_page_test, run_vmtests.sh) are defined and ran:
         # selftests: vm: madv_populate
         not ok 1 selftests: vm: madv_populate # exit=1
         # selftests: vm: soft-dirty
         ok 2 selftests: vm: soft-dirty
         # selftests: vm: split_huge_page_test
         ok 3 selftests: vm: split_huge_page_test
         # selftests: vm: run_vmtests.sh
         ok 4 selftests: vm: run_vmtests.sh # SKIP

I'm not saying utilizing the TEST_GEN_PROG variable is incorrect, I'm
just pointing out that we have a sudden change in run behavior via the
run_test wrapper. I personally think the TEST_GEN_PROG output is
cleaner, but having two different ways of outputting results may be
harder/confusing to parser. Additionally there is still the issue that
madv_populate is being run twice for no reason.

Thank you for sharing. A directory inside selftests like selftests/vm
can have multiple individual tests. To me, it means that it can have
multiple binaries to run as individual tests. For selftests/vm,
historically we have this run_vmtests.sh as the only script which runs
all the tests inside the directory. This kind of script isn't present in
other selftests. So normally contributors are not aware of this script.
People use different ways to run selftests. So it doesn't get caught
easily. The tests can be run with different arguments through
run_vmtests.sh. But we shouldn't depend on run_vmtests.sh to run all the
tests as there are tests which have multiple source files and their
binary gets listed separately.

At this point, the parser can be updated. The duplicate runs of the
tests should be removed:
diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/vm/run_vmtests.sh
b/tools/testing/selftests/vm/run_vmtests.sh
index e780e76c26b8..3bf946437ad9 100755
--- a/tools/testing/selftests/vm/run_vmtests.sh
+++ b/tools/testing/selftests/vm/run_vmtests.sh
@@ -166,9 +166,6 @@ run_test ./mremap_dontunmap

-# MADV_POPULATE_READ and MADV_POPULATE_WRITE tests
-run_test ./madv_populate

 # KSM MADV_MERGEABLE test with 10 identical pages

The separate binaries are being run as I'd used TEST_GEN_PROGS. I hadn't
found any other way to build test with more than one source file. If
there is some other way, that should be used and supremacy of the
run_vmtests.sh can be kept.
