Subject: [PATCH RESEND] apparmor: replace get_zeroed_page() with kzalloc()
Date: Sun, 31 May 2026 18:15:56 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260531151556.1467596-1-rppt@kernel.org> (raw)
From: "Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" <rppt@kernel.org>
multi_transaction_new() allocates memory with get_zeroed_page() and uses
it as struct multi_transaction.
The usage of that structure does not require struct page access and it is
better to allocate multi_transaction objects with kzalloc() that provides
better scalability and more debugging possibilities.
Replace use of get_zeroed_page() with kzalloc().
