[patch 025/262] kasan: fix tag for large allocations when using CONFIG_SLAB

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

Subject: kasan: fix tag for large allocations when using CONFIG_SLAB

If an object is allocated on a tail page of a multi-page slab, kasan will
get the wrong tag because page->s_mem is NULL for tail pages.  I'm not
quite sure what the user-visible effect of this might be.
