mm/slub, kunit: Use inverted data to corrupt kmem cache
Two failure patterns are seen randomly when running slub_kunit tests with CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM and CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED enabled. Pattern 1: # test_clobber_zone: pass:1 fail:0 skip:0 total:1 ok 1 test_clobber_zone # test_next_pointer: EXPECTATION FAILED at lib/slub_kunit.c:72 Expected 3 == slab_errors, but slab_errors == 0 (0x0) # test_next_pointer: EXPECTATION FAILED at lib/slub_kunit.c:84 Expected 2 == slab_errors, but slab_errors == 0 (0x0) # test_next_pointer: pass:0 fail:1 skip:0 total:1 not ok 2 test_next_pointer In this case, test_next_pointer() overwrites p[s->offset], but the data at p[s->offset] is already 0x12. Pattern 2: ok 1 test_clobber_zone # test_next_pointer: EXPECTATION FAILED at lib/slub_kunit.c:72 Expected 3 == slab_errors, but slab_errors == 2 (0x2) # test_next_pointer: pass:0 fail:1 skip:0 total:1 not ok 2 test_next_pointer In this case, p[s->offset] has a value other than 0x12, but one of the expected failures is nevertheless missing. Invert data instead of writing a fixed value to corrupt the cache data structures to fix the problem.
