2011-02-18Expand CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST to several other list operationsLinus Torvalds1-13/+26
When list debugging is enabled, we aim to readably show list corruption errors, and the basic list_add/list_del operations end up having extra debugging code in them to do some basic validation of the list entries. However, "list_del_init()" and "list_move[_tail]()" ended up avoiding the debug code due to how they were written. This fixes that. So the _next_ time we have list_move() problems with stale list entries, we'll hopefully have an easier time finding them.. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
2010-08-09list debugging: warn when deleting a deleted entryBaruch Siach1-0/+6
Use the magic LIST_POISON* values to detect an incorrect use of list_del on a deleted entry. This DEBUG_LIST specific warning is easier to understand than the generic Oops message caused by LIST_POISON dereference.

2008-07-25list debugging: use WARN() instead of BUG()Dave Jones1-22/+14
Arjan noted that the list_head debugging is BUG'ing when it detects corruption. By causing the box to panic immediately, we're possibly losing some bug reports. Changing this to a WARN() should mean we at the least start seeing reports collected at kerneloops.org Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <[email protected]> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <[email protected]> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
2008-07-25lists: remove a redundant conditional definition of list_add()Robert P. J. Day1-14/+0
Remove the conditional surrounding the definition of list_add() from list.h since, if you define CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST, the definition you will subsequently pick up from lib/list_debug.c will be absolutely identical, at which point you can remove that redundant definition from list_debug.c as well.

2006-12-07[PATCH] More list debugging contextDave Jones1-4/+6
Print the other (hopefully) known good pointer when list_head debugging too, which may yield additional clues. Also fix for 80-columns to win akpm brownie points.

2006-10-01[PATCH] list_del-debug fixAndrew Morton1-3/+0
These two BUG_ON()s are redundant and undesired: we're checking for this condition further on in the function, only better. Cc: Dave Jones <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
2006-09-29[PATCH] list_del debug checkManfred Spraul1-5/+7
A list_del() debugging check. Has been in -mm for years. Dave moved list_del() out-of-line in the debug case, so this is now suitable for mainline. Cc: Dave Jones <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
