tracing: Inform kmemleak of saved_cmdlines allocation
The allocation of the struct saved_cmdlines_buffer structure changed from:
s = kmalloc(sizeof(*s), GFP_KERNEL);
s->saved_cmdlines = kmalloc_array(TASK_COMM_LEN, val, GFP_KERNEL);
to:
orig_size = sizeof(*s) + val * TASK_COMM_LEN;
order = get_order(orig_size);
size = 1 << (order + PAGE_SHIFT);
page = alloc_pages(GFP_KERNEL, order);
if (!page)
return NULL;
s = page_address(page);
memset(s, 0, sizeof(*s));
s->saved_cmdlines = kmalloc_array(TASK_COMM_LEN, val, GFP_KERNEL);
Where that s->saved_cmdlines allocation looks to be a dangling allocation
to kmemleak. That's because kmemleak only keeps track of kmalloc()
allocations. For allocations that use page_alloc() directly, the kmemleak
needs to be explicitly informed about it.
Add kmemleak_alloc() and kmemleak_free() around the page allocation so
that it doesn't give the following false positive:
