Chaitanya S Prakash 3cce258ea4 selftests/mm: change MAP_CHUNK_SIZE
Patch series "selftests: Fix virtual address range for arm64", v2.

When the virtual address range selftest is run on arm64 and x86 platforms,
it is observed that both the low and high VA range iterations are skipped
when the MAP_CHUNK_SIZE is set to 16GB.  The MAP_CHUNK_SIZE is changed to
1GB to resolve this issue, following which support for arm64 platform is
added by changing the NR_CHUNKS_HIGH for aarch64 to accommodate up to 4PB
of virtual address space allocation requests.  Dynamic memory allocation
of array holding addresses is introduced to prevent overflow of the stack.
Finally, the overcommit_policy is set as OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS to prevent the
kernel from denying a memory allocation request based on a platform's
physical memory availability.


This patch (of 3):

mmap() fails to allocate 16GB virtual space chunk, skipping both low and
high VA range iterations.  Hence, reduce MAP_CHUNK_SIZE to 1GB and update
relevant macros as required.

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.
