Hi!
> v2:
>  -Fixed coding style errors as per 'make check'
>  -Reporting TPASS moved inside do_shmtest() function
>  -Moved testcase file from folder hugemmap to hugeshmget
>  -Renamed testcase 'hugepage35.c' to hugeshmget06.c 
>  -Updated 'kernel/mem/.gitignore'
>  -Updated 'runtest/hugetlb' for number of iterations with -i 10

This version looks much better, a few comments below.

THis should be moved into setup, since otherwise we would create one id
per iteration (run test with -i 2) and the test will leak shm ids.

If we print fail here we will still continue and print the TPASS at the
end of the function. Should we instead do shmdt() and return here?

Also the message can be shorter while keeping the information in there
and there is no guarantee that the corrupted byte would be printable, so
I would print hex instead, something as:

	tst_res(TFAIL, "Got wrong byte 0x%02x expected 0x%02x", ...

> +	}
> +	SAFE_SHMDT((const void *)shmaddr);
> +	tst_res(TPASS, "Successfully tested shared memory segment operations "
> +			"backed by hugepages");

Can we be shorter and to the point? Something as:

tst_res(TPASS, "shm hugepages works correctly");

Is there a reason why this isn't simply do_shmtest(NR_HUGEPAGES * hpage_size); ?

This newline shouldn't be here.

Please do not comment the obvious.

Do we actually need to mount the hugetlbfs?
