Patch series "mm: kmemleak: store objects allocated with physical address separately and check when scan", v4. The kmemleak_*_phys() interface uses "min_low_pfn" and "max_low_pfn" to check address. But on some architectures, kmemleak_*_phys() is called before those two variables initialized. The following steps will be taken: 1) Add OBJECT_PHYS flag and rbtree for the objects allocated with physical address 2) Store physical address in objects if allocated with OBJECT_PHYS 3) Check the boundary when scan instead of in kmemleak_*_phys() This patch set will solve: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220527032504.30341-1-yee.lee@mediatek.com https://lore.kernel.org/r/9dd08bb5-f39e-53d8-f88d-bec598a08c93@gmail.com v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220609124950.1694394-1-patrick.wang.shcn@gmail.com v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220603035415.1243913-1-patrick.wang.shcn@gmail.com v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220531150823.1004101-1-patrick.wang.shcn@gmail.com This patch (of 4): Remove the unused kmemleak_not_leak_phys() function. And remove the min_count argument to kmemleak_alloc_phys() function, assume it's 0.

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.
