Patch series "provide the flexibility to enable KFENCE", v3. If CONFIG_CONTIG_ALLOC is not supported, we fallback to try alloc_pages_exact(). Allocating pages in this way has limits about MAX_ORDER (default 11). So we will not support allocating kfence pool after system startup with a large KFENCE_NUM_OBJECTS. When handling failures in kfence_init_pool_late(), we pair free_pages_exact() to alloc_pages_exact() for compatibility consideration, though it actually does the same as free_contig_range(). This patch (of 2): If once KFENCE is disabled by: echo 0 > /sys/module/kfence/parameters/sample_interval KFENCE could never be re-enabled until next rebooting. Allow re-enabling it by writing a positive num to sample_interval.

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.
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.
