[PATCH v2] module: check if memory leak by module.

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

 



This patch checks if any module which is going to be unloaded
is doing vmalloc memory leak or not.

Logs:-
[  129.336368] Module [test_module] is getting unloaded before doing vfree
[  129.336371] Memory still allocated: addr:0xffffc90001461000 - 0xffffc900014c7000, pages 101
[  129.336376] Allocating function kernel_init+0x1c/0x20 [test_module]

v1->v2: made code generic rather than dependent on config.
	changed pr_alert to pr_err.
