For current krealloc(), one problem is its caller doesn't pass the old request size, say the object is 64 bytes kmalloc one, but caller may only requested 48 bytes. Then when krealloc() shrinks or grows in the same object, or allocate a new bigger object, it lacks this 'original size' information to do accurate data preserving or zeroing (when __GFP_ZERO is set). Thus with slub debug redzone and object tracking enabled, parts of the object after krealloc() might contain redzone data instead of zeroes, which is violating the __GFP_ZERO guarantees. Good thing is in this case, kmalloc caches do have this 'orig_size' feature. So solve the problem by utilize 'org_size' to do accurate data zeroing and preserving.

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 reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
