sk_filter isn't freed if bpf_func is equal to sk_run_filter. This memory leak was introduced by commit d45ed4a4e33ae103053c0a53d280014e7101bb5c Author: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Oct 4 00:14:06 2013 -0700 net: fix unsafe set_memory_rw from softirq Before this patch sk_filter was freed in sk_filter_release_rcu, now it is freed in bpf_jit_free.
