The patch titled cifs: fix inode leak in cifs_get_inode_info_unix has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was cifs-fix-inode-leak-in-cifs_get_inode_info_unix.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: cifs: fix inode leak in cifs_get_inode_info_unix From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> Try this: mount a share with unix extensions create a file on it umount the share You'll get the following message in the ring buffer: VFS: Busy inodes after unmount of cifs. Self-destruct in 5 seconds. Have a nice day... ...the problem is that cifs_get_inode_info_unix is creating and hashing a new inode even when it's going to return error anyway. The first lookup when creating a file returns an error so we end up leaking this inode before we do the actual create. This appears to be a regression caused by commit 0e4bbde94fdc33f5b3d793166b21bf768ca3e098. The following patch seems to fix it for me, and fixes a minor formatting nit as well.
