Well this means we really only need the copying in slub which we already have. The problem is that you want to make this behavior uniform over all allocators so that you do not have to allocate the string on your own. Could you wait (and not rely on copying) until I am through with the extraction project for common code for the allocators? At that point we can resolve this issue consistently for all allocators. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
