Ok, I took another look into the report but bear in mind that the corruption indeed happened in retire_userns_sysctls. But also this row in the report leads me to believe it's not my patch that's the culprit: [ 65.527277] INFO: Allocated in setup_userns_sysctls+0x3f/0xa6 age=5 cpu=1 pid=418 [ 65.558397] INFO: Freed in free_ctx+0x1d/0x20 age=6 cpu=0 pid=19 So a free_ctx function did free it originally, likely causing the corruption. And there is no such function involved in the code I'm touching. > > Regards, > Nikolay > > >> >> Eric >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Containers mailing list >> Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >> https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers >> _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
