[PATCH 3/6] block: don't call bio_uninit from bio_endio

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

 



Commit b222dd2fdd53 ("block: call bio_uninit in bio_endio") added a call
to bio_uninit in bio_endio to work around callers that use bio_init but
fail to call bio_uninit after they are done to release the resources.
While this is an abuse of the bio_init API we still have quite a few of
those left.  But this early uninit causes a problem for integrity data,
as at least some users need the bio_integrity_payload.  Right now the
only one is the NVMe passthrough which archives this by adding a special
case to skip the freeing if the BIP_INTEGRITY_USER flag is set.

Sort this out by only putting bi_blkg in bio_endio as that is the cause
of the actual leaks - the few users of the crypto context and integrity
data all properly call bio_uninit, usually through bio_put for
dynamically allocated bios.
