Subject: [PATCH] mm: slub: print_hex_dump() with DUMP_PREFIX_OFFSET
Date: Fri, 20 Sep 2019 18:48:49 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190920104849.32504-1-miles.chen@mediatek.com> (raw)

Since commit ad67b74d2469d9b8 ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p"),
The use DUMP_PREFIX_OFFSET instead of DUMP_PREFIX_ADDRESS with
print_hex_dump() can generate more useful messages.

In the following example, it's easier get the offset of incorrect poison
value with DUMP_PREFIX_OFFSET.

Before:
Object 00000000e817b73b: 00 00 00 00 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b
Object 00000000816f4601: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b
Object 00000000169d2bb8: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b
Object 00000000f4c38716: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b
Object 00000000917e3491: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b
Object 00000000c0e33738: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b
Object 000000001755ddd1: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b

After:
Object 00000000: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b
Object 00000010: 63 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b
Object 00000020: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b
Object 00000030: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b a5

I think it might be worth to convert all DUMP_PREFIX_ADDRESS to
DUMP_PREFIX_OFFSET for the whole Linux kernel.

$ git grep 'DUMP_PREFIX_ADDRESS' | cut -f1 -d"/" | sort | uniq -c
3 arch
140 drivers
12 fs
1 include
5 lib
2 mm
