Thus, it might be a good idea to, place it outside the IRQ disabled section? It might make the code look a little strange, but I can try and we can see how ugly that makes the code look (and the compiler still have to be able to remove the code in-case no debugging enabled). > + > + if (unlikely(!objp)) > + goto error; > + > + prefetchw(objp); > + p[i] = objp; > + } > + local_irq_enable(); > + > + /* Kmemleak and kmemcheck outside IRQ disabled section */ > + for (i = 0; i < size; i++) { > + void *x = p[i]; > + > + kmemleak_alloc_recursive(x, s->object_size, 1, s->flags, flags); > + kmemcheck_slab_alloc(s, flags, x, s->object_size); > + } > + > + /* Clear memory outside IRQ disabled section */ > + if (unlikely(flags & __GFP_ZERO)) > + for (i = 0; i < size; i++) > + memset(p[i], 0, s->object_size); [...] -- Best regards, Jesper Dangaard Brouer MSc.CS, Principal Kernel Engineer at Red Hat Author of http://www.iptv-analyzer.org LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/brouer -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
