slabinfo is about querying kernel internals and requiring stable and permanent interfaces to that would imply freezing the kernel internals. People who want to have information about slabs and other similar kernel internal allocations will always have to deal with version dependencies. No way around that. > Perhaps /proc/slabinfo should be that relatively stable interface, if That would require at least never changing any slab caches in any subsystem.
