Hi all,

I run mmap/31-1 failed with ENOMEM on linux, with error message:
off: fffffffffffff000, len: fffffffffffff000
Test FAIL: expect EOVERFLOW but get other error: Cannot allocate memory

But compare to mmap/24-2, it mmap() the same length but pass. Its output:
available memory: 18446744073709551615
addr: 7f78c54fa000, len: ffffffffffffffff
addr: 7f78c54fa000, len: fffffffffffff000
Test Pass: mmap/24-2.c Get ENOMEM: Cannot allocate memory

So I suppose that mmap/31-1 may need update, but I don't know how to make mmap() overflow as expect.
Any suggestion is appreciated.

Regards,
Kai

At least the mmap/31-1, mmap/28-1, mmap/27-1, mmap/24-2, mmap/11-4 and mmap/11-5 are known to fail sometimes and most likely are coded incorrecly.

I would start with careful reading of the mmap() manpages/docs, as most likely some of the assumptions that the testcase makes is incorrect.

I don't think mmap/31-1 need update since it is Linux Kernel's problem, not the test's problem. The problem is being discussed on LKML.

As you say, it has not been accepted yet.
But I think Linux will be fixed to return EOVERFLOW in mmap/31-1's test in the near future.

Yeah, agree, so we need not update this test case now and wait for a while to let the kernel bug to be fixed.
