From f96d8612172969e14cf6faf651a12b757fd9627f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masahiro Yamada Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2015 13:17:07 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] linux_compat: handle __GFP_ZERO in kmalloc() Currently, kzalloc() returns zero-filled memory, while kmalloc() simply ignores the second argument and never fills the memory area with zeros. I want kmalloc(size, __GFP_ZERO) to behave as kzalloc() does, which will make it easier to add more memory allocator variants. With the introduction of __GFP_ZERO flag, going forward, kzmalloc() variants can fall back to kmalloc() enabling the __GFP_ZERO flag.
