From d9570ee3bd1d4f20ce63485f5ef05663866fe6c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dmitry Vyukov Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2018 16:53:10 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] kmemleak: allow to coexist with fault injection kmemleak does one slab allocation per user allocation. So if slab fault injection is enabled to any degree, kmemleak instantly fails to allocate and turns itself off. However, it's useful to use kmemleak with fault injection to find leaks on error paths. On the other hand, checking kmemleak itself is not so useful because (1) it's a debugging tool and (2) it has a very regular allocation pattern (basically a single allocation site, so it either works or not). Turn off fault injection for kmemleak allocations.
