Subject: [PATCH] ocfs2/heartbeat: fix slot mapping rollback leaks on error paths
Date: Sat, 28 Mar 2026 17:23:39 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260328092339.75306-1-yufan.chen@linux.dev> (raw)

From: Yufan Chen <ericterminal@gmail.com>

o2hb_map_slot_data() allocated hr_tmp_block, hr_slots, hr_slot_data, and pages in stages but returned directly on allocation failures without unwinding previously allocated resources. Under repeated allocation failures this could leak memory and increase pressure toward OOM.

o2hb_region_dev_store() also failed to roll back slot mapping resources when setup aborted, leaving stale allocations around retry attempts.

Introduce o2hb_unmap_slot_data() as a single reverse-order cleanup helper, switch o2hb_map_slot_data() to a centralized goto-based error exit, and call the same rollback path from o2hb_region_dev_store() after stopping a possibly started heartbeat thread. This ensures failed setup fully releases resources and remains safely retryable.
