Date: Fri, 2 May 2014 14:41:08 +0100 From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@....com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, linux-mm@...ck.org Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org> Subject: [PATCH 4/6] mm: Update the kmemleak stack trace for mempool allocations When mempool_alloc() returns an existing pool object, kmemleak_alloc() is no longer called and the stack trace corresponds to the original object allocation. This patch updates the kmemleak allocation stack trace for such objects to make it more useful for debugging.
