The first two patches from a series by Kees Cook [1] that introduce kmalloc_size_roundup(). This will allow merging of per-subsystem patches using the new function and ultimately stop (ab)using ksize() in a way that causes ongoing trouble for debugging functionality and static checkers. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220923202822.2667581-1-keescook@chromium.org/ -- Resolved a conflict of modifying mm/slab.c __ksize() comment with a commit that unifies __ksize() implementation into mm/slab_common.c
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 Restructured Text 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.
