Subject: [PATCH 2/3] slab: convert setup_slub_debug() to use __core_param_cb()
Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2025 19:06:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9674b34861394088c7853edf8e9d2b439fd4b42f.1761324765.git.ptesarik@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1761324765.git.ptesarik@suse.com>

Use __core_param_cb() to parse the "slab_debug" kernel parameter instead of
the obsolescent __setup(). For now, the parameter is not exposed in sysfs,
and no get ops is provided.

There is a slight change in behavior. Before this patch, the following
parameter would silently turn on full debugging for all slabs:

  slub_debug_yada_yada_gotta_love_this=hail_satan!

This syntax is now rejected, and the parameter will be passed to user
space, making the kernel a holier place.
