Hello, RFC Page owner tracks a call chain that has allocated a page, this patch set extends it with a PAGE_OWNER_TRACK_FREE functionality, that now also tracks a call chain that has freed the page. Page dump, thus, now has the following format: a) page allocated backtrace b) page free backtrace c) backtrace of path that has trigger bad page For a quick example of a case when this new b) part can make a difference please see 0003.
