From a7b50abc90afb2e3c27e1bd212643cc53eaf0b60 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Kravetz Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2016 14:48:40 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] selftests/vm/compaction_test: fix write to restore nr_hugepages The write at the end of the test to restore nr_hugepages to its previous value is failing. This is because it is trying to write the number of bytes in the char array as opposed to the number of bytes in the string.
