debugobjects: avoid recursive calls with kmemleak

Qian Cai · torvalds · commit 8de456cf87ba · 2018-11-30T14:56:14.000-08:00
CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD does not play well with kmemleak due to recursive calls. fill_pool kmemleak_ignore make_black_object put_object __call_rcu (kernel/rcu/tree.c) debug_rcu_head_queue debug_object_activate debug_object_init fill_pool kmemleak_ignore make_black_object ... So add SLAB_NOLEAKTRACE to kmem_cache_create() to not register newly allocated debug objects at all.
