[PATCH 0/3] kmemleak: fix stale documentation and raise the verbose default

Posted by Breno Leitao 1 week ago

The first two patches fix statements in
Documentation/dev-tools/kmemleak.rst that do not match mm/kmemleak.c.

The third requires one more consecutive unreferenced scan before a
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_VERBOSE kernel reports a leak on the console, to
avoid the last false positives I am seeing when running
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_VERBOSE on a daily basis.
