Don't have this issue. That mmput() is not tied to zapping mappings, rather zapping files. IOW, I think you're saying exit_mmap() wasn't running due to your get_task_mm() (quite understandable, you still hold a ref), whereas this ref is tied to exit_files(). So do_exit would do: exit_mm mmput <-- not dropped yet exit_files ->release mmput <-- dropped here thanks, -chris -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
