SLUB for some period of time had passthrough. It did not start out like that though. kmalloc-4096 causes problems in the long run and so do other caches that are of similar size. But it allows debugging to occur. Silently switching it off is something I am not comfortable with. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-testers" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
