349 Say Y here if you want to enable the memory leak
350 detector. The memory allocation/freeing is traced in a way
351 similar to the Boehm's conservative garbage collector, the
352 difference being that the orphan objects are not freed but
353 only shown in /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak. Enabling this
354 feature will introduce an overhead to memory
355 allocations. See Documentation/kmemleak.txt for more
356 details.
357
358 In order to access the kmemleak file, debugfs needs to be
359 mounted (usually at /sys/kernel/debug).
