[RFC PATCH v2 0/2] lib, stackdepot: check stackdepot handle before accessing slabs

[Imran Khan]

Original cover letter
---------------------------------------
This RFC patch series addresses suggestion discussed in an earlier
RFC [1]. Since earlier RFC was about SLUB subsystem, and current
changes only involve stackdepot, I am submitting the patches in
a new thread.

The changes of this patch set are as follows:

PATCH-1: Checks validity of a stackdepot handle before proceeding
to access stackdepot slab/objects.

PATCH-2: Adds a helper in stackdepot, to allow users to print
stack entries just by specifying the stackdepot handle.   

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/2772cf56-4183-857f-d070-c54bceb5c8d9@suse.cz/
--------------------------------------

Changes in v2:
- remove WARN messages
- add declaration of stack_depot_print in stackdepot.h
- make current users, which use stack_depot_fetch + stack_trace_print 
  to print stack entries, use stack_depot_print

Imran Khan (2):
  lib, stackdepot: check stackdepot handle before accessing slabs.
  lib, stackdepot: Add helper to print stack entries.

[RFC PATCH v2 1/2] lib, stackdepot: check stackdepot handle before accessing slabs.

[Imran Khan]

stack_depot_save allocates slabs that will be used for storing
objects in future.If this slab allocation fails we may get to
a situation where space allocation for a new stack_record fails,
causing stack_depot_save to return 0 as handle.
If user of this handle ends up invoking stack_depot_fetch with
this handle value, current implementation of stack_depot_fetch
will end up using slab from wrong index.
To avoid this check handle value at the beginning.

[RFC PATCH v2 2/2] lib, stackdepot: Add helper to print stack entries.

[Imran Khan]

To print a stack entries, users of stackdepot, first
use stack_depot_fetch to get a list of stack entries
and then use stack_trace_print to print this list.
Provide a helper in stackdepot to print stack entries
based on stackdepot handle.
Also change above mentioned users to use this helper.

Maybe this should also skip stack_trace_print when nr_entries is 0, to avoid
the warning. While the callers added by this patch check handle != 0, future
ones might not.

Agree. I have incorporated this suggestion in latest version [1]
