When pages are pinned they can be faulted in userland and migrated, and they can be faulted right in kernel without migration. In either case, the pinned pages must end-up being pinnable (not movable). Add a new test to gup_test, to help verify that the gup/pup (get_user_pages() / pin_user_pages()) behavior with respect to pinnable and movable pages is reasonable and correct. Specifically, provide a way to: 1) Verify that only "pinnable" pages are pinned. This is checked automatically for you. 2) Verify that gup/pup performance is reasonable. This requires comparing benchmarks between doing gup/pup on pages that have been pre-faulted in from user space, vs. doing gup/pup on pages that are not faulted in until gup/pup time (via FOLL_TOUCH). This decision is controlled with the new -z command line option.

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.
