[PATCH 0/3][RFC] mm/page:_owner: track page free call chain

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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.

Sergey Senozhatsky (3):
  mm/page_owner: rename page_owner functions
  mm/page_owner: rename PAGE_EXT_OWNER flag
  mm/page_owner: track page free call chain
