Subject: [PATCH 2.6.17-rc6 0/8] Kernel memory leak detector 0.6
Date: Tue, 06 Jun 2006 23:18:25 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060606221825.23913.43029.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
This is a new version (0.6) of the kernel memory leak detector. See
the Documentation/kmemleak.txt file for a more detailed
description. The patches are downloadable from (the bundled patch or
the series):
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/cmarinas/kmemleak/patch-2.6.17-rc6-kmemleak-0.6.bz2
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/cmarinas/kmemleak/patches-kmemleak-0.6.tar.bz2
What's new in this version:
- fixed SMP locking (hopefully the last)
- added support for padded objects (allocated pointer different from
the object one)
- fixed two false positives caused by padding
To do:
- more testing
- test Ingo's suggestion on task stacks scanning
- NUMA support
- (support for ioremap tracking)
