The patch titled Subject: list_debug: introduce inline wrappers for debug checks has been added to the -mm mm-nonmm-unstable branch. Its filename is list_debug-introduce-inline-wrappers-for-debug-checks.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/list_debug-introduce-inline-wrappers-for-debug-checks.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-nonmm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm 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 via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Marco Elver <elver@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: list_debug: introduce inline wrappers for debug checks Date: Tue, 8 Aug 2023 12:17:26 +0200 Turn the list debug checking functions __list_*_valid() into inline functions that wrap the out-of-line functions. Care is taken to ensure the inline wrappers are always inlined, so that additional compiler instrumentation (such as sanitizers) does not result in redundant outlining. This change is preparation for performing checks in the inline wrappers. No functional change intended.
