DEFINE_IDA causing memory leaks? (was Re: [PATCH 1/2] virtio: fix memory leak of virtio ida cache layers)
...io device is > registered and unregistered. > > Fix this by invoking ida_destroy() in the virtio core module > exit. > > Cc: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst at redhat.com> > Signed-off-by: Suman Anna <s-anna at ti.com> Interesting. Will the same apply to e.g. sd_index_ida in drivers/scsi/sd.c or iscsi_sess_ida in drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c? If no, why not? One doesn't generally expect to have to free global variables. Maybe we should forbid DEFINE_IDA in modules? James, could you comment on this please? > --- > drivers/virtio/virtio.c | 1 + &...

[PATCH 0/2] Fix memory leaks in virtio & remoteproc cores
Hi, The following patches fix couple of memory leaks in the virtio and remoteproc cores when using these as modules, and going through a cycle of insmod and rmmod with at least a device registered with the corresponding cores in between. I ran into this on our downstream product kernels on both 3.14 and 4.1 based kernels, and should apply to the latest kernel as well. Patches can be picked up
