Revision f6ba488073fe8159851fe398cc3c5ee383bb4c7a authored by Vladimir Davydov on 18 August 2017, 22:16:08 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 18 August 2017, 22:32:01 UTC
To avoid a possible deadlock, sysfs_slab_remove() schedules an asynchronous work to delete sysfs entries corresponding to the kmem cache. To ensure the cache isn't freed before the work function is called, it takes a reference to the cache kobject. The reference is supposed to be released by the work function. However, the work function (sysfs_slab_remove_workfn()) does nothing in case the cache sysfs entry has already been deleted, leaking the kobject and the corresponding cache. This may happen on a per memcg cache destruction, because sysfs entries of a per memcg cache are deleted on memcg offline if the cache is empty (see __kmemcg_cache_deactivate()). The kmemleak report looks like this: unreferenced object 0xffff9f798a79f540 (size 32): comm "kworker/1:4", pid 15416, jiffies 4307432429 (age 28687.554s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 6b 6d 61 6c 6c 6f 63 2d 31 36 28 31 35 39 39 3a kmalloc-16(1599: 6e 65 77 72 6f 6f 74 29 00 23 6b c0 ff ff ff ff newroot).#k..... backtrace: kmemleak_alloc+0x4a/0xa0 __kmalloc_track_caller+0x148/0x2c0 kvasprintf+0x66/0xd0 kasprintf+0x49/0x70 memcg_create_kmem_cache+0xe6/0x160 memcg_kmem_cache_create_func+0x20/0x110 process_one_work+0x205/0x5d0 worker_thread+0x4e/0x3a0 kthread+0x109/0x140 ret_from_fork+0x2a/0x40 unreferenced object 0xffff9f79b6136840 (size 416): comm "kworker/1:4", pid 15416, jiffies 4307432429 (age 28687.573s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 40 fb 80 c2 3e 33 00 00 00 00 00 40 00 00 00 00 @...>3.....@.... 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: kmemleak_alloc+0x4a/0xa0 kmem_cache_alloc+0x128/0x280 create_cache+0x3b/0x1e0 memcg_create_kmem_cache+0x118/0x160 memcg_kmem_cache_create_func+0x20/0x110 process_one_work+0x205/0x5d0 worker_thread+0x4e/0x3a0 kthread+0x109/0x140 ret_from_fork+0x2a/0x40 Fix the leak by adding the missing call to kobject_put() to sysfs_slab_remove_workfn().
