Date: Wed, 30 May 2007 17:20:47 -0700 From: clameter@....com To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: linux-mm@...ck.org, akpm@...ux-foundation.org Subject: [RFC 0/4] CONFIG_STABLE to switch off development checks A while back we talked about having the capability of switching off checks like the one for kmalloc(0) for stable kernel releases. This is a first stab at such functionality. It adds #ifdef CONFIG_STABLE for now. Maybe we can come up with some better way to handle it later. There should alsol be some way to set CONFIG_STABLE from the Makefile. CONFIG_STABLE switches off - kmalloc(0) check in both slab allocators - SLUB banner - Makes SLUB tolerate object corruption like SLAB (not sure if we really want to go down this route. See patch) -- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
