The test is pretty basic, and exercises UFFDIO_POISON straightforwardly. We register a region with userfaultfd, in missing fault mode. For each fault, we either UFFDIO_COPY a zeroed page (odd pages) or UFFDIO_POISON (even pages). We do this mix to test "something like a real use case", where guest memory would be some mix of poisoned and non-poisoned pages. We read each page in the region, and assert that the odd pages are zeroed as expected, and the even pages yield a SIGBUS as expected. Why UFFDIO_COPY instead of UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE? Because hugetlb doesn't support UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE, and we don't want to have special case code.

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 Restructured Text 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.
