From: Laura Abbott Date: Fri, 26 Feb 2016 00:36:43 +0000 (-0800) Subject: lkdtm: Update WRITE_AFTER_FREE test X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=250a8988ef4071d8b7cdbb27388f09f33402293a;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git lkdtm: Update WRITE_AFTER_FREE test The SLUB allocator may use the first word of a freed block to store the freelist information. This may make it harder to test poisoning features. Change the WRITE_AFTER_FREE test to better match what the READ_AFTER_FREE test does and also print out a big more information.
