Subject: [PATCH] nfsd4: fix nfs4 stateid leak
Date: Mon, 10 Sep 2012 10:54:43 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120910145443.GD30136@fieldses.org> (raw)

From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@redhat.com>

Processes that open and close multiple files may end up setting this
oo_last_closed_stid without freeing what was previously pointed to.
This can result in a major leak, visible for example by watching the
nfsd4_stateids line of /proc/slabinfo.
