These checks interspersed with the regular code path has lead to compile time warnings when compiled without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM defined. Restructuring the code to move the integrity checks in to a new function would eliminate the current compile warning problem and also will allow for future changes to the debug only code to evolve without introducing new warnings in the regular path. This restructuring work is based on the discussion in the following thread: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/13/424 Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan --- mm/slab_common.c | 90 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------- 1 file changed, 48 insertions(+), 42 deletions(-) diff --git a/mm/slab_common.c b/mm/slab_common.c index 12637ce..44facdf 100644 --- a/mm/slab_common.c +++ b/mm/slab_common.c @@ -23,6 +23,52 @@ enum slab_state slab_state; LIST_HEAD(slab_caches); DEFINE_MUTEX(slab_mutex); +#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_VM +static int kmem_cache_sanity_check(const char *name, size_t size) +{ + struct kmem_cache *s = NULL; + + if (!name || in_interrupt() || size < sizeof(void *) || + size > KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE) { + pr_err("kmem_cache_create(%s) integrity check failed\n", name); + return -EINVAL; + } + + list_for_each_entry(s, &slab_caches, list) { + char tmp; + int res; + + /* + * This happens when the module gets unloaded and doesn't + * destroy its slab cache and no-one else reuses the vmalloc + * area of the module.
