Subject: [PATCH 2/5] kmemleak: add clear command support
Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2009 18:40:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1251942059-21448-3-git-send-email-lrodriguez@atheros.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1251942059-21448-1-git-send-email-lrodriguez@atheros.com>

In an ideal world your kmemleak output will be small,
when its not you can use the clear command to ingore previously
annotated kmemleak objects. We do this by painting them black.
