you can use "sys_mprotect" call which is kernel space equ. of "mprotect" . The implementation for the same can be found in "mm\mprotect.c".

Hi, Is there some kernel api to validate memory allocated using kmalloc. Suppose, I allocate some memory using kmalloc and at a later point of execution I would like to validate if the memory allocated is not possibly freed by some other thread.
Pls suggest a patch/pointers if any. I also noticed a commented 'CONFIG_DEBUG_MALLOC' config option (2.4.3 source), It doesn't seem to be functional. Any pointers towards the history behind it would also be helpful.
Thanks in advance, Kiran
