Subject: Common [01/19] slub: Add debugging to verify correct cache use on kmem_cache_free()
Date: Thu, 02 Aug 2012 15:15:07 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120802201530.921218259@linux.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20120802201506.266817615@linux.com
[-- Attachment #1: slub_new_debug --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1026 bytes --]
Add additional debugging to check that the objects is actually from the cache
the caller claims. Doing so currently trips up some other debugging code. It
takes a lot to infer from that what was happening.
