Subject: [bug] SLUB & freeing locks [was: Re: 2.6.23-rc1: known regressions with patches]
Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2007 11:10:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070726091048.GA7366@elte.hu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <46A47940.7030801@googlemail.com>


there's a new regression:

SLUB does not seem to call debug_check_no_locks_freed() - hence on SLUB 
we will not notice certain types of freeing races. (such as freeing an 
object still locked and used on another CPU.) SLAB does this corretly.
