From 4a20799d11f64e6b8725cacc7619b1ae1dbf9acd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vladimir Murzin Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2015 15:48:27 -0700 Subject: mm: move memtest under mm Memtest is a simple feature which fills the memory with a given set of patterns and validates memory contents, if bad memory regions is detected it reserves them via memblock API. Since memblock API is widely used by other architectures this feature can be enabled outside of x86 world. This patch set promotes memtest to live under generic mm umbrella and enables memtest feature for arm/arm64. It was reported that this patch set was useful for tracking down an issue with some errant DMA on an arm64 platform. This patch (of 6): There is nothing platform dependent in the core memtest code, so other platforms might benefit from this feature too.
