The patch titled Subject: mm: defer kmemleak object creation of module_alloc() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-defer-kmemleak-object-creation-of-module_alloc.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Kefeng Wang <wangkefeng.wang@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: defer kmemleak object creation of module_alloc() Yongqiang reports a kmemleak panic when module insmod/rmmod with KASAN enabled(without KASAN_VMALLOC) on x86[1]. When the module area allocates memory, it's kmemleak_object is created successfully, but the KASAN shadow memory of module allocation is not ready, so when kmemleak scan the module's pointer, it will panic due to no shadow memory with KASAN check. module_alloc __vmalloc_node_range kmemleak_vmalloc kmemleak_scan update_checksum kasan_module_alloc kmemleak_ignore Note, there is no problem if KASAN_VMALLOC enabled, the modules area entire shadow memory is preallocated. Thus, the bug only exits on ARCH which supports dynamic allocation of module area per module load, for now, only x86/arm64/s390 are involved. Add a VM_DEFER_KMEMLEAK flags, defer vmalloc'ed object register of kmemleak in module_alloc() to fix this issue.
