Subject: [PATCH 07/14] kmemleak: Add kmemleak_alloc callback from alloc_large_system_hash
Date: Fri, 24 Apr 2009 17:41:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090424164137.4476.20373.stgit@pc1117.cambridge.arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090424163500.4476.62146.stgit@pc1117.cambridge.arm.com>

The alloc_large_system_hash function is called from various places in
the kernel and it contains pointers to other allocated structures. It
therefore needs to be traced by kmemleak.
