Commit c87db8ca0902 ("kmemleak-test: fix kmemleak_test.c build logic")
essentially renames the config DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_TEST to SAMPLE_KMEMLEAK, but
misses to adjust the documentation.

Adjust kmemleak documentation to this config renaming.

mm: kmemleak: remove kmemleak_not_leak_phys() and the min_count argument to kmemleak_alloc_phys()

Patch series "mm: kmemleak: store objects allocated with physical address
separately and check when scan", v4.

The kmemleak_*_phys() interface uses "min_low_pfn" and "max_low_pfn" to
check address. But on some architectures, kmemleak_*_phys() is called
before those two variables initialized. The following steps will be
taken:

1) Add OBJECT_PHYS flag and rbtree for the objects allocated
with physical address
2) Store physical address in objects if allocated with OBJECT_PHYS
3) Check the boundary when scan instead of in kmemleak_*_phys()

This patch set will solve:

This patch (of 4):

Remove the unused kmemleak_not_leak_phys() function. And remove the
min_count argument to kmemleak_alloc_phys() function, assume it's 0.

mm: kmemleak: treat vm_struct as alternative reference to vmalloc'ed objects

Kmemleak requires that vmalloc'ed objects have a minimum reference count
of 2: one in the corresponding vm_struct object

mm: kmemleak: treat vm_struct as alternative reference to vmalloc'ed objects

Kmemleak requires that vmalloc'ed objects have a minimum reference count
of 2: one in the corresponding vm_struct object and the other owned by
the vmalloc() caller. There are cases, however, where the original
vmalloc() returned pointer is lost and, instead, a pointer to vm_struct
is stored (see free_thread_stack()). Kmemleak currently reports such
objects as leaks.

This patch adds support for treating any surplus references to an object
as additional references to a specified object. It introduces the
kmemleak_vmalloc() API function which takes a vm_struct pointer and sets
its surplus reference passing to the actual vmalloc() returned pointer.
The __vmalloc_node_range() calling site has been modified accordingly.

mm: kmemleak: avoid using __va() on addresses that don't have a lowmem mapping

Some of the kmemleak_*() callbacks in memblock, bootmem, CMA convert a
physical address to a virtual one using __va().

mm: kmemleak: avoid using __va() on addresses that don't have a lowmem mapping

Some of the kmemleak_*() callbacks in memblock, bootmem, CMA convert a
physical address to a virtual one using __va(). However, such physical
addresses may sometimes be located in highmem and using __va() is
incorrect, leading to inconsistent object tracking in kmemleak.

The following functions have been added to the kmemleak API and they take
a physical address as the object pointer. They only perform the
corresponding action if the address has a lowmem mapping:

kmemleak_alloc_phys
kmemleak_free_part_phys
kmemleak_not_leak_phys
kmemleak_ignore_phys

The affected calling places have been updated to use the new kmemleak
API.

mm: kmemleak: treat vm_struct as alternative reference to vmalloc'ed objects

Kmemleak requires that vmalloc'ed objects have a minimum reference count
of 2: one in the corresponding vm_struct object and the other owned by
the vmalloc() caller. There are cases, however, where the original
vmalloc() returned pointer is lost and, instead, a pointer to vm_struct
is stored (see free_thread_stack()). Kmemleak currently reports such
objects as leaks.

This patch adds support for treating any surplus references to an object
as additional references to a specified object. It introduces the
kmemleak_vmalloc() API function which takes a vm_struct pointer and sets
its surplus reference passing to the actual vmalloc() returned pointer.
The __vmalloc_node_range() calling site has been modified accordingly.

mm: kmemleak: avoid using __va() on addresses that don't have a lowmem mapping

Some of the kmemleak_*() callbacks in memblock, bootmem, CMA convert a
physical address to a virtual one using __va(). However, such physical
addresses may sometimes be located in highmem and using __va() is
incorrect, leading to inconsistent object tracking in kmemleak.

The following functions have been added to the kmemleak API and they take
a physical address as the object pointer. They only perform the
corresponding action if the address has a lowmem mapping:

kmemleak_alloc_phys
kmemleak_free_part_phys
kmemleak_not_leak_phys
kmemleak_ignore_phys

The affected calling places have been updated to use the new kmemleak
API.
