mm/memblock.c: skip kmemleak for kasan_init()
Kmemleak does not play well with KASAN (tested on both HPE Apollo 70 and Huawei TaiShan 2280 aarch64 servers). After calling start_kernel()->setup_arch()->kasan_init(), kmemleak early log buffer went from something like 280 to 260000 which caused kmemleak disabled and crash dump memory reservation failed. The multitude of kmemleak_alloc() calls is from nested loops while KASAN is setting up full memory mappings, so let early kmemleak allocations skip those memblock_alloc_internal() calls came from kasan_init() given that those early KASAN memory mappings should not reference to other memory. Hence, no kmemleak false positives. kasan_init kasan_map_populate [1] kasan_pgd_populate [2] kasan_pud_populate [3] kasan_pmd_populate [4] kasan_pte_populate [5] kasan_alloc_zeroed_page memblock_alloc_try_nid memblock_alloc_internal kmemleak_alloc [1] for_each_memblock(memory, reg) [2] while (pgdp++, addr = next, addr != end) [3] while (pudp++, addr = next, addr != end && pud_none(READ_ONCE(*pudp))) [4] while (pmdp++, addr = next, addr != end && pmd_none(READ_ONCE(*pmdp))) [5] while (ptep++, addr = next, addr != end && pte_none(READ_ONCE(*ptep))) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1543442925-17794-1-git-send-email-cai@gmx.us Signed-off-by: Qian Cai <cai@gmx.us> Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
