I deeply appreciate for your criticism. This is my first patch and I will improve it based on what we have discussed so far.

Sorry if it seemed harsh, I appreciate the first patch can be difficult (I still remember mine!) but hopefully it's clear the focus is on getting things right technically and this is all :)
Overall I think something more like a generalised test of process_madvise() behaviour would be most valuable, as David suggested?
Thanks, Lorenzo

Thank you for your helpful and constructive feedback.
I understand that getting things right technically is critical, and I really appreciate your guidance and encouragement as I work on my first patch.
I will revise the patch based on the suggestion to generalize the test for `process_madvise()` behavior, as David proposed.
Thanks again to everyone for the insightful comments and support!
Best regards, wang lian
