Subject: [PATCH v2 4/6] slub_kunit: Add a test for the slab_buckets boot parameter
Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2026 14:08:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <47c0b11109203640122a9b5b030d3f41bfbac609.1793253633.git.chris@chrisdown.name> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1793253633.git.chris@chrisdown.name>
Check that memdup_user() allocates from the memdup_user buckets by
default, and from the regular kmalloc caches when they're turned off
with slab_buckets=0.
Signed-off-by: Chris Down <chris@chrisdown.name>
