CVS commit: src/sys/kern



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   maxv
Date:           Sun Dec 31 06:57:12 UTC 2017

Modified Files:
        src/sys/kern: uipc_mbuf.c

Log Message:
Check MT_FREE by default, and not just under DEBUG (or DIAGNOSTIC). This
code is fast, with an nonexistent overhead - and we already take care of
setting MT_FREE, so why not check it.

In addition, stop registering the function name, that's not helpful since
the MBUFFREE macro is local. Instead, set m_data to NULL, so that any
access to a freed mbuf's data after mtod() or similar will page fault.

The combination of these two changes provides a fast and efficient way of
detecting use-after-frees in the network stack.
