These checks interspersed with the regular code path has lead to compile time warnings when compiled without CONFIG_DEBUG_VM defined. Restructuring the code to move the integrity checks in to a new function would eliminate the current compile warning problem and also will allow for future changes to the debug only code to evolve without introducing new warnings in the regular path. This restructuring work is based on the discussion in the following thread: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/13/424 Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan --- mm/slab_common.c | 74 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------------------------- 1 file changed, 38 insertions(+), 36 deletions(-) diff --git a/mm/slab_common.c b/mm/slab_common.c index 12637ce..08bc2a4 100644 --- a/mm/slab_common.c +++ b/mm/slab_common.c @@ -23,6 +23,41 @@ enum slab_state slab_state; LIST_HEAD(slab_caches); DEFINE_MUTEX(slab_mutex); +static int kmem_cache_sanity_check(const char *name, size_t size) +{ +#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_VM + struct kmem_cache *s = NULL; + + list_for_each_entry(s, &slab_caches, list) { + char tmp; + int res; + + /* + * This happens when the module gets unloaded and doesn't + * destroy its slab cache and no-one else reuses the vmalloc + * area of the module.
