[PATCH 16/18] mm/vchecker: support allocation caller filter

From: js1304
Date: Tue Nov 28 2017 - 02:50:24 EST


From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@xxxxxxx>

kmalloc() is used everywhere in the kernel and it doesn't distiniguish
the callers since it doesn't much help to efficiently manage the memory.

However, there is a difference in the view of the debugging. A bug usually
happens on the objects allocated by specific allocation caller. So,
it is useful to distiniguish them. Let's call it as a same class object.

This patch implements an allocation caller filter to distiniguish
the class. With it, vchecker can be applied only to a specific class
and debugging it could be possible.

Note that it's not easy to distiniguish allocation caller of existing
allocated memory. Therefore, existing allocated memory will not be
included to debugging target if allocation caller filter is enabled.
If it is really required, feel free to ask me. I have a rough idea
to implement it.
