The commit 2d4f567103ff ("KVM: PPC: Introduce kvm_tmp framework") adds kvm_tmp[] into the .bss section and then free the rest of unused spaces back to the page allocator. kernel_init kvm_guest_init kvm_free_tmp free_reserved_area free_unref_page free_unref_page_prepare With DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y, it will unmap those pages from kernel. As the result, kmemleak scan will trigger a panic when it scans the .bss section with unmapped pages. This patch creates dedicated kmemleak objects for the .data, .bss and potentially .data..ro_after_init sections to allow partial freeing via the kmemleak_free_part() in the powerpc kvm_free_tmp() function. Acked-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> (powerpc) Reported-by: Qian Cai <cai@lca.pw> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> --- Posting as a proper patch following the inlined one here: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190320181656.GB38229@arrakis.emea.arm.com Changes from the above: - Added comment to the powerpc kmemleak_free_part() call - Only register the .data..ro_after_init in kmemleak if not contained within the .data sections (which seems to be the case for lots of architectures) I preserved part of Qian's original commit message but changed the author since I rewrote the patch. arch/powerpc/kernel/kvm.c | 7 +++++++ mm/kmemleak.c | 16 +++++++++++----- 2 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
