[PATCH v2 1/2] mm/page_ext: support to record the last stack of page

From: Walter Wu
Date: Mon Sep 09 2019 - 04:53:52 EST


KASAN will record last stack of page in order to help programmer
to see memory corruption caused by page.

What is difference between page_owner and our patch?
page_owner records alloc stack of page, but our patch is to record
last stack(it may be alloc or free stack of page).
