Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck
2 Years ago I proposed to kill kmemcheck:
> As discussed on LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck.
>
> KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of
> kmemcheck (single CPU, slow). KASan is already upstream.
>
> We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't consider
> KASan as a suitable replacement).
The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC
versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2
years, and try again.
Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports
KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons.
Changes for v2:
- Break patch out.
Sasha Levin (4):
kmemcheck: remove annotations
kmemcheck: stop using GFP_NOTRACK and SLAB_NOTRACK
kmemcheck: rip it out
kmemcheck: remove whats left of NOTRACK flags
