From: Steven Rostedt Date: Wed, 15 May 2013 19:33:01 +0000 (+0100) Subject: kmemleak: Scan all allocated, writeable and not executable module sections X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=06c9494c0e9bdfcaa14d6d2b096a0ff7abe8494f;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git kmemleak: Scan all allocated, writeable and not executable module sections Instead of just picking data sections by name (names that start with .data, .bss or .ref.data), use the section flags and scan all sections that are allocated, writable and not executable. Which should cover all sections of a module that might reference data.
