Subject: [PATCH] Fix for "kmem -s|-S" option on Linux 5.7 and later kernels
Linux 5.7 and later kernels that contain kernel commit 1ad53d9fa3f6
("slub: improve bit diffusion for freelist ptr obfuscation") changed
the calculation formula in the freelist_ptr(), which added a swab()
call to mix bits a little more. When kernel is configured with the
"CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED=y", without the patch, the "kmem -s|-S"
options display wrong statistics and state whether slab objects are
in use or free and can print the following errors:
crash> kmem -s
CACHE OBJSIZE ALLOCATED TOTAL SLABS SSIZE NAME
87201e00 528 0 0 0 8k xfs_dqtrx
87201f00 496 0 0 0 8k xfs_dquot
kmem: xfs_buf: slab: 37202e6e900 invalid freepointer: b844bab900001d70
kmem: xfs_buf: slab: 3720250fd80 invalid freepointer: b8603f9400001370
