To: Linux Kernel MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7BIT Message-ID: <595070.37181.qm@web55605.mail.re4.yahoo.com> Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hi, Is there any debug option where I get some memory (from kmalloc() family) for limited time only. Once the time slice expires, that memory is zeroed out so that if I use it again after the time slice expired, I should see a crash. -Amit ____________________________________________________________________________________ Finding fabulous fares is fun.
