It seems it is not always the case. This is a very serious problem. We probably have hundred of potential bugs, because few people actually make sure all debugging stuff is correct, like comments can be wrong because they are not updated properly as time flies. It is definitely a nop for many cases. +void eric_test_pr_debug(struct sock *sk) +{ + if (atomic_read(&sk->sk_omem_alloc)) + pr_debug("%s: optmem leakage for sock %p\n", + __func__, sk); +} -> 0000000000004740 <eric_test_pr_debug>: 4740: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 4745 <eric_test_pr_debug+0x5> 4741: R_X86_64_PC32 __fentry__-0x4 4745: 55 push %rbp 4746: 8b 87 24 01 00 00 mov 0x124(%rdi),%eax // atomic_read() but nothing follows 474c: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp 474f: 5d pop %rbp 4750: c3 retq -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sctp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
