lib: add version into /proc/allocinfo output
Add version string and a header at the beginning of /proc/allocinfo to allow later format changes. Example output: > head /proc/allocinfo allocinfo - version: 1.0 # <size> <calls> <tag info> 0 0 init/main.c:1314 func:do_initcalls 0 0 init/do_mounts.c:353 func:mount_nodev_root 0 0 init/do_mounts.c:187 func:mount_root_generic 0 0 init/do_mounts.c:158 func:do_mount_root 0 0 init/initramfs.c:493 func:unpack_to_rootfs 0 0 init/initramfs.c:492 func:unpack_to_rootfs 0 0 init/initramfs.c:491 func:unpack_to_rootfs 512 1 arch/x86/events/rapl.c:681 func:init_rapl_pmus 128 1 arch/x86/events/rapl.c:571 func:rapl_cpu_online [akpm@linux-foundation.org: remove stray newline from struct allocinfo_private] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240514163128.3662251-1-surenb@google.com Signed-off-by: Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@google.com> Reviewed-by: Pasha Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@soleen.com> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Kent Overstreet <kent.overstreet@linux.dev> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
