[PATCH] SLAB: Record actual last user of freed objects.

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

 



Currently, when using CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, we put in kfree() or
kmem_cache_free() as the last user of free objects, which is not
very useful, so change it to the caller of those functions instead.
