This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled sit: fix sit0 percpu double allocations to the 4.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: sit-fix-sit0-percpu-double-allocations.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Tue Nov 17 14:35:45 PST 2015 From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2015 17:08:19 -0800 Subject: sit: fix sit0 percpu double allocations From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 4ece9009774596ee3df0acba65a324b7ea79387c ] sit0 device allocates its percpu storage twice : - One time in ipip6_tunnel_init() - One time in ipip6_fb_tunnel_init() Thus we leak 48 bytes per possible cpu per network namespace dismantle. ipip6_fb_tunnel_init() can be much simpler and does not return an error, and should be called after register_netdev() Note that ipip6_tunnel_clone_6rd() also needs to be called after register_netdev() (calling ipip6_tunnel_init()) Fixes: ebe084aafb7e ("sit: Use ipip6_tunnel_init as the ndo_init function.")
