When SLUB_DEBUG catches some issues, it prints all the required debug info. However, in a few cases where allocation and free of the object has happened in a very short time, 'age' might be misleading. See the example below: ============================================================================= BUG kmalloc-256 (Tainted: G W O ): Poison overwritten ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ... INFO: Allocated in binder_transaction+0x4b0/0x2448 age=731 cpu=3 pid=5314 ... INFO: Freed in binder_free_transaction+0x2c/0x58 age=735 cpu=6 pid=2079 ... Object fffffff14956a870: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 67 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b a5 kkkkkkkkgkkkk In this case, object got freed later but 'age' shows otherwise. This could be because, while printing this info, we print allocation traces first and free traces thereafter. In between, if we get schedule out or jiffies increment, (jiffies - t->when) could become meaningless. Use the jitter free reference to calculate age. New output will exactly be same. 'age' is still staying with single jiffies ref in both prints.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
