Subject: [PATCH v3 03/17] arm64: kexec_file: Fix CMA page leaks in segment placement retry loops
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 17:25:27 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260826092541.3905933-4-ruanjinjie@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260826092541.3905933-1-ruanjinjie@huawei.com>

During kexec image placement retry loops, any midway failure causes
the loader to truncate `image->nr_segments` back to its initial state
to purge the failed segments.

However, this truncation introduces a memory leak. The CMA pages
allocated via kexec_add_buffer() during the failed attempt are tracked
in the `image->segment_cma` array. Because the subsequent cleanup paths
only iterate up to the truncated `nr_segments` boundary, these allocated
CMA pages outside the new boundary are permanently leaked.

Fix this by explicitly releasing the associated CMA buffers in
the failure paths before `image->nr_segments` is reduced.
