| |
Hi everyone,
This small patchset improves mm tracing accuracy, particularly on the slob allocator. Feedback, comments, suggestions are very welcome.
This work is part of CELF Workgroup Project: "Kernel_dynamic_memory_allocation_tracking_and_reduction" [1]
Ezequiel Garcia (5): mm, slob: Trace allocation failures consistently mm, slob: Use only 'ret' variable for both slob object and returned pointer mm, util: Do strndup_user allocation directly, instead of through memdup_user mm, slob: Add support for kmalloc_track_caller() mm, slab: Remove silly function slab_buffer_size()
