[PATCH] mm: slab: free kmem_cache_node after destroy sysfs file

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

 



With enabled slub_debug alloc_calls_show will try to track location and
user of slab object on each online node, kmem_cache_node structure and
cpu_cache/cpu_slub shouldn't be freed till there is the last reference
to sysfs file.

Fixes the following panic:

Separated nodes structures and per-cpu freeing into __kmem_cache_release
and use it at kmem_cache_release.

v2: Down with SLAB_SUPPORTS_SYSFS thing.                                         
v3: Moved sysfs_slab_remove inside shutdown_cache                                
v4: Reworked all to shutdown & free caches on object->release()
v5: Made separate __kmem_cache_free_nodes function and call it on release.
v6: Fixed silly error: call to __kmem_cache_free_nodes from kmem_cache_close
v7: by Vladimir's suggestion renamed __kmem_cache_{free_nodes,_release}
    and put inside per-cpu freeing of cpu_slub, cpu_cache,
    renamed kmem_cache_close to __kmem_cache_release as it's inline functon
