Subject: [PATCH] megaraid: kmemleak: Track page allocation for fusion
Date: Thu, 14 Sep 2017 14:16:46 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170914061646.10275-1-shuwang@redhat.com> (raw)

From: Shu Wang <shuwang@redhat.com>

Kmemleak reports about a thousand false positives for fusion->
cmd_list[]. Root casue is the cmd_list objects are allocated from
slab allocator, and stored its pointer in object allocated by page
allocator. The fix will tell kmemleak to track and scan fusion
object.

Before patch:
kmemleak: 1004 new suspected memory leaks (see /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak)

unreferenced object 0xffff88042584e000 (size 8192):
  backtrace:
