Subject: [PATCH v28 3/4] mm/page_poison: add a function to expose page poison val to kernel modules
Date: Thu,  8 Feb 2018 17:50:19 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1518083420-11108-4-git-send-email-wei.w.wang@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1518083420-11108-1-git-send-email-wei.w.wang@intel.com>

Move the PAGE_POISON value to page_poison.c and add a function to enable
callers from a kernel module to get the poison value if the page poisoning
feature is in use. This also avoids callers directly checking PAGE_POISON
regardless of whether the feature is enabled.
