Subject: [PATCH v2 0/5] cleanup page poisoning
Date: Tue,  3 Nov 2020 16:22:32 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201103152237.9853-1-vbabka@suse.cz> (raw)

The first version was called "optimize handling of memory debugging parameters"
[1], changes are:

- apply review feedback
- drop former Patch 3
- add new patches 3-5, change name and cover letter of series

I have identified a number of issues and opportunities for cleanup with
CONFIG_PAGE_POISON and friends:
- interaction with init_on_alloc and init_on_free parameters depends on
  the order of parameters (Patch 1)
- the boot time enabling uses static key, but inefficienty (Patch 2)
- sanity checking is incompatible with hibernation (Patch 3)
- CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_NO_SANITY can be removed now that we have init_on_free
  (Patch 4)
- CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_ZERO can be most likely removed now that we have
  init_on_free (Patch 5)

Vlastimil Babka (5):
  mm, page_alloc: do not rely on the order of page_poison and
    init_on_alloc/free parameters
  mm, page_poison: use static key more efficiently
  kernel/power: allow hibernation with page_poison sanity checking
  mm, page_poison: remove CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_NO_SANITY
  mm, page_poison: remove CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_ZERO
