2011-12-06mm, x86: Remove debug_pagealloc_enabledStanislaw Gruszka
When (no)bootmem finish operation, it pass pages to buddy allocator. Since debug_pagealloc_enabled is not set, we will do not protect pages, what is not what we want with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y. To fix remove debug_pagealloc_enabled. That variable was introduced by commit 12d6f21e "x86: do not PSE on CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y" to get more CPA (change page attribude) code testing. But currently we have CONFIG_CPA_DEBUG, which test CPA.

2011-10-31mm/debug-pagealloc.c: use plain __ratelimit() instead of printk_ratelimit()Akinobu Mita
printk_ratelimit() should not be used, because it shares ratelimiting state with all other unrelated printk_ratelimit() callsites.

2009-04-01generic debug pageallocAkinobu Mita
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is now supported by x86, powerpc, sparc64, and s390. This patch implements it for the rest of the architectures by filling the pages with poison byte patterns after free_pages() and verifying the poison patterns before alloc_pages(). This generic one cannot detect invalid page accesses immediately but invalid read access may cause invalid dereference by poisoned memory and invalid write access can be detected after a long delay.
