We clearly want to ensure both userfaultfd(2) and /dev/userfaultfd keep working into the future, so just run the test twice, using each interface. Instead of always testing both userfaultfd(2) and /dev/userfaultfd, let the user choose which to test. As with other test features, change the behavior based on a new command line flag. Introduce the idea of "test mods", which are generic (not specific to a test type) modifications to the behavior of the test. This is sort of borrowed from this RFC patch series [1], but simplified a bit. The benefit is, in "typical" configurations this test is somewhat slow (say, 30sec or something). Testing both clearly doubles it, so it may not always be desirable, as users are likely to use one or the other, but never both, in the "real world".

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.
