However, recent kernels use a wider range of characters, such as ">". For instance, see this Linux commit which creates a "page->ptl" slab: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/mm/memory.c?id=b35f1819acd9243a3ff7ad25b1fa8bd6bfe80fb2#n4283 Other patches for reporting slab usage per memcg include the names of the cgroup in the slabinfo output, which can include additional characters and use dots for abbreviation. The check should not be so string, instead it could simply look for a chain of non-whitespace characters and that should be enough. Tested that `make check` is still working, including in some of the environments where features that enable the additional slabinfo names.
