[added to the 3.18 stable tree] ioctx_alloc(): fix vma (and file) leak on failure

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit deeb8525f9bcea60f5e86521880c1161de7a5829 ]

If we fail past the aio_setup_ring(), we need to destroy the
mapping.  We don't need to care about anybody having found ctx,
or added requests to it, since the last failure exit is exactly
the failure to make ctx visible to lookups.

Reproducer (based on one by Joe Mario <jmario@xxxxxxxxxx>):

void count(char *p)
{
	char s[80];
	printf("%s: ", p);
	fflush(stdout);
	sprintf(s, "/bin/cat /proc/%d/maps|/bin/fgrep -c '/[aio] (deleted)'", getpid());
	system(s);
}

int main()
{
	io_context_t *ctx;
	int created, limit, i, destroyed;
	FILE *f;

	count("before");
	if ((f = fopen("/proc/sys/fs/aio-max-nr", "r")) == NULL)
		perror("opening aio-max-nr");
	else if (fscanf(f, "%d", &limit) != 1)
		fprintf(stderr, "can't parse aio-max-nr\n");
	else if ((ctx = calloc(limit, sizeof(io_context_t))) == NULL)
		perror("allocating aio_context_t array");
	else {
		for (i = 0, created = 0; i < limit; i++) {
			if (io_setup(1000, ctx + created) == 0)
				created++;
		}
		for (i = 0, destroyed = 0; i < created; i++)
			if (io_destroy(ctx[i]) == 0)
				destroyed++;
		printf("created %d, failed %d, destroyed %d\n",
			created, limit - created, destroyed);
		count("after");
	}
}
