Subject: kmemleak report in 3.9.5 related to ext4_alloc_inode
Date: Tue, 11 Jun 2013 11:24:31 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <51B76B5F.1090301@candelatech.com> (raw)

Hello!

I see this kmemleak report in a slightly modified 3.9.5 kernel
(no patches to the ext4 subsystem).

Any idea if this is real and/or what a fix would be?

unreferenced object 0xffff8801170bb700 (size 40):
   comm "prelink", pid 25152, jiffies 4352882167 (age 29213.208s)
