Subject: [PATCH v2] mm/slub: refactor freelist to use custom type
Date: Tue, 4 Jul 2023 13:58:34 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230704135834.3884421-1-matteorizzo@google.com> (raw)
From: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com>
Currently the SLUB code represents encoded freelist entries as "void*".
That's misleading, those things are encoded under
CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED so that they're not actually dereferencable.
Give them their own type, and split freelist_ptr() into one function per
direction (one for encoding, one for decoding).
