Subject: [PATCH] ramfs: fix memleak on no-mmu arch
Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2011 13:32:35 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1301290355-8980-1-git-send-email-lliubbo@gmail.com> (raw)
On no-mmu arch, there is a memleak duirng shmem test.
The cause of this memleak is ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping() added page
refcount to 2 which makes iput() can't free that pages.
The simple test file is like this:
int main(void)
{
int i;
key_t k = ftok("/etc", 42);
for ( i=0; i<100; ++i) {
int id = shmget(k, 10000, 0644|IPC_CREAT);
if (id == -1) {
printf("shmget error\n");
}
if(shmctl(id, IPC_RMID, NULL ) == -1) {
printf("shm rm error\n");
return -1;
}
}
printf("run ok...\n");
return 0;
}
And the result:
