The patch titled Subject: lib/list_debug.c: print unmangled addresses has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is list_debug-print-unmangled-addresses.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/list_debug-print-unmangled-addresses.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/list_debug-print-unmangled-addresses.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: lib/list_debug.c: print unmangled addresses The entire point of printing the pointers in list_debug is to see if there's any useful information in them (eg poison values, ASCII, etc); obscuring them to see if they compare equal makes them much less useful. If an attacker can force this message to be printed, we've already lost.
