[PATCH][STABLE] block: Free iovec arrays allocated by multiwrite_merge()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A new iovec array is allocated when creating a merged write request.
This patch ensures that the iovec array is deleted in addition to its
qiov owner.

This fixes the virtio-blk memory leak that has recently been reported by Leszek
Urbanski <tygrys@xxxxxx>.

The patch should apply to qemu.git and qemu-kvm.git.  I'm proposing this patch
for both qemu and qemu-kvm and their stable branches.  Sorry if the CCs are
overkill, please let me know so I can follow the process better next time.
