Actually I think I prefer a different fix, which is simply to call ceph_con_put(con) in the same spot it was called with con->in_msg->con before. I'd rather drop the message reference before dropping the connection reference. I.e.: @@ -440,7 +440,7 @@ static void reset_connection(struct ceph_connection *con) con->in_msg->con = NULL; ceph_msg_put(con->in_msg); con->in_msg = NULL; - ceph_con_put(con->in_msg->con); + ceph_con_put(con); } con->connect_seq = 0; (I crafted that manually--it may not work...) I will re-post that fix and will credit you with it. Please acknowledge it's OK with you though.
