net: rds: fix memory leak in rds_ib_flush_mr_pool
[ Upstream commit 85cb928787eab6a2f4ca9d2a798b6f3bed53ced1 ] When the following tests last for several hours, the problem will occur. Server: rds-stress -r 1.1.1.16 -D 1M Client: rds-stress -r 1.1.1.14 -s 1.1.1.16 -D 1M -T 30 The following will occur. " Starting up.... tsks tx/s rx/s tx+rx K/s mbi K/s mbo K/s tx us/c rtt us cpu % 1 0 0 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 -1.00 1 0 0 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 -1.00 1 0 0 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 -1.00 1 0 0 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 -1.00 " >From vmcore, we can find that clean_list is NULL. >From the source code, rds_mr_flushd calls rds_ib_mr_pool_flush_worker. Then rds_ib_mr_pool_flush_worker calls " rds_ib_flush_mr_pool(pool, 0, NULL); " Then in function " int rds_ib_flush_mr_pool(struct rds_ib_mr_pool *pool, int free_all, struct rds_ib_mr **ibmr_ret) " ibmr_ret is NULL. In the source code, " ... list_to_llist_nodes(pool, &unmap_list, &clean_nodes, &clean_tail); if (ibmr_ret) *ibmr_ret = llist_entry(clean_nodes, struct rds_ib_mr, llnode); /* more than one entry in llist nodes */ if (clean_nodes->next) llist_add_batch(clean_nodes->next, clean_tail, &pool->clean_list); ... " When ibmr_ret is NULL, llist_entry is not executed. clean_nodes->next instead of clean_nodes is added in clean_list. So clean_nodes is discarded. It can not be used again. The workqueue is executed periodically. So more and more clean_nodes are discarded. Finally the clean_list is NULL. Then this problem will occur.
