From: Mike Christie <michaelc@xxxxxxxxxxx> This patch should fix the file descriptor leak problem. A quick look through the kernel shows that users of sockfd_lookup use sockfd_put to release their handle. We were using sock_release which from the comments and code look like it does not release the get() on the file from the lookup.
