The patch titled Subject: slub: remove resiliency_test() function has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is slub-remove-resiliency_test-function.patch This patch should soon appear at https://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/slub-remove-resiliency_test-function.patch and later at https://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/slub-remove-resiliency_test-function.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: Oliver Glitta <glittao@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: slub: remove resiliency_test() function Function resiliency_test() is hidden behind #ifdef SLUB_RESILIENCY_TEST that is not part of Kconfig, so nobody runs it. This function is replaced with kselftest for SLUB added by the previous patch "selftests: add a kselftest for SLUB debugging functionality".
