failslab: add ability to filter slab caches
This patch allow to inject faults only for specific slabs. In order to preserve default behavior cache filter is off by default (all caches are faulty). One may define specific set of slabs like this: # mark skbuff_head_cache as faulty echo 1 > /sys/kernel/slab/skbuff_head_cache/failslab # Turn on cache filter (off by default) echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/failslab/cache-filter # Turn on fault injection echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/failslab/times echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/failslab/probability Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Acked-by: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>
