[PATCH v2 1/1] mm: fix vma->anon_name memory leak for anonymous shmem VMAs

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

 



free_anon_vma_name() is missing a check for anonymous shmem VMA which
leads to a memory leak due to refcount not being dropped.  Fix this by
calling anon_vma_name_put() unconditionally. It will free vma->anon_name
whenever it's non-NULL.
