Shuah Khan (Samsung OSG) 4312c2df0b selftests: memfd: return Kselftest Skip code for skipped tests
[ Upstream commit b27f0259e8 ]

When memfd test is skipped because of unmet dependencies and/or unsupported
configuration, it returns non-zero value which is treated as a fail by the
Kselftest framework. This leads to false negative result even when the test
could not be run.

Change it to return kselftest skip code when a test gets skipped to clearly
report that the test could not be run.

Added an explicit check for root user at the start of memfd hugetlbfs test
and return skip code if a non-root user attempts to run it.

In addition, return skip code when not enough huge pages are available to
run the test.

Kselftest framework SKIP code is 4 and the framework prints appropriate
messages to indicate that the test is skipped.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
