2016-07-14x86/mm: Audit and remove any unnecessary uses of module.hPaul Gortmaker
Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file. This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. The advantage in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using. Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance for the presence of either and replace accordingly where needed. Note that some bool/obj-y instances remain since module.h is the header for some exception table entry stuff, and for things like __init_or_module (code that is tossed when MODULES=n).

2010-02-17kmemcheck: Test the full object in kmemcheck_is_obj_initialized()Catalin Marinas
This is a fix for bug #14845 (bugzilla.kernel.org). The update_checksum() function in mm/kmemleak.c calls kmemcheck_is_obj_initialised() before scanning an object. When KMEMCHECK_PARTIAL_OK is enabled, this function returns true. However, the crc32_le() reads smaller intervals (32-bit) for which kmemleak_is_obj_initialised() may be false leading to a kmemcheck warning. Note that kmemcheck_is_obj_initialized() is currently only used by kmemleak before scanning a memory location.

This adds support for tracking the initializedness of memory that was allocated with the page allocator. Highmem requests are not tracked.

2009-06-13kmemcheck: add the kmemcheck coreVegard Nossum
General description: kmemcheck is a patch to the linux kernel that detects use of uninitialized memory. It does this by trapping every read and write to memory that was allocated dynamically (e.g. using kmalloc()). If a memory address is read that has not previously been written to, a message is printed to the kernel log. Thanks to Andi Kleen for the set_memory_4k() solution. Andrew Morton suggested documenting the shadow member of struct page.
