First of all there are style problems in the patchset, please run
'make check' and fix all reported problems.

should be static

here as well.

I do not thint that this works as intended. The test cleanup() is not
executed for child processes.

Why do we set static sement size? Why can't we just use multiple of
hugepage size instead?

This code runs both for child and parent, this looks like a mistake.

Also at which point should the child exit?

Here as well all children gets here.

What did we actually validated here? What is the purpose of the test?

My guess is that we are trying to check that we can attach shm hugepages
several times and the number of hugepages in use does not grow, but the
code does not seem to match that expecation.
