The patch titled kmemleak: add modules support has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kmemleak-add-modules-support.patch This patch was dropped because other changes were merged, which wrecked this patch The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: kmemleak: add modules support From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@xxxxxxx> Handle the kmemleak operations needed for modules loading so that memory allocations from inside a module are properly tracked.
