commit8186255705upstream. The hugepage test cases of iommufd_dirty_tracking have the 64MB and 128MB coverages. Both of them are smaller than the default hugepage size 512MB, when CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_64KB=y. However, these test cases have a variant of using huge pages, which would mmap(MAP_HUGETLB) using these smaller sizes than the system hugepag size. This results in the kernel aligning up the smaller size to 512MB. If a memory was located between the upper 64/128MB size boundary and the hugepage 512MB boundary, it would get wiped out: https://lore.kernel.org/all/aEoUhPYIAizTLADq@nvidia.com/ Given that this aligning up behavior is well documented, we have no choice but to allocate a hugepage aligned size to avoid this unintended wipe out. Instead of relying on the kernel's internal force alignment, pass the same size to posix_memalign() and map(). Also, fix the FIXTURE_TEARDOWN() misusing munmap() to free the memory from posix_memalign(), as munmap() doesn't destroy the allocator meta data. So, call free() instead.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
