The patch titled Subject: mremap: don't leak new_vma if f_op->mremap() fails has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mremap-dont-leak-new_vma-if-f_op-mremap-fails.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mremap-dont-leak-new_vma-if-f_op-mremap-fails.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mremap-dont-leak-new_vma-if-f_op-mremap-fails.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mremap: don't leak new_vma if f_op->mremap() fails move_vma() can't just return if f_op->mremap() fails, we should unmap the new vma like we do if move_page_tables() fails. To avoid the code duplication this patch moves the "move entries back" under the new "if (err)" branch.
