[PATCH 2/3] slab: don't put freepointer outside of object if only orig_size

From: Chengming Zhou
Date: Tue May 28 2024 - 03:18:29 EST


The commit 946fa0dbf2d8 ("mm/slub: extend redzone check to extra
allocated kmalloc space than requested") will extend right redzone
when allocating for orig_size < object_size. So we can't overlay the
freepointer in the object space in this case.

But the code looks like it forgot to check SLAB_RED_ZONE, since there
won't be extended right redzone if only orig_size enabled.
