If slabobj_ext vector allocation for a slab object fails and later on it succeeds for another object in the same slab, the slabobj_ext for the original object will be NULL and will be flagged in case when CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG is enabled. Mark failed slabobj_ext vector allocations using a new objext_flags flag stored in the lower bits of slab->obj_exts. When new allocation succeeds it marks all tag references in the same slabobj_ext vector as empty to avoid warnings implemented by CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG checks.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
