      slub: fix per cpu kmem_cache_cpu array memory leak · 37189094
      由 David Rientjes 提交于 
      The per cpu array of kmem_cache_cpu structures accomodates
NR_KMEM_CACHE_CPU such structs.

When this array overflows and a struct is allocated by kmalloc(), it may
have an address at the upper bound of this array.  If this happens, it
does not get freed and the per cpu kmem_cache_cpu_free pointer will be out
of bounds after kmem_cache_destroy() or cpu offlining.

      kmalloc: return NULL instead of link failure · 1cf3eb2f
      由 Jeff Mahoney 提交于 
      The SLAB kmalloc with a constant value isn't consistent with the other
implementations because it bails out with __you_cannot_kmalloc_that_much
rather than returning NULL and properly allowing the caller to fall back
to vmalloc or take other action.  This doesn't happen with a non-constant
value or with SLOB or SLUB.

Starting with 2.6.28, I've been seeing build failures on s390x.  This is
due to init_section_page_cgroup trying to allocate 2.5MB when the max size
for a kmalloc on s390x is 2MB.

It's failing because the value is constant.  The workarounds at the call
size are ugly and the caller shouldn't have to change behavior depending
on what the backend of the API is.

So, this patch eliminates the link failure and returns NULL like the other
implementations.
