If an object was modified since it was previously suspected as leak, do not report it. The modification check is done by calculating the checksum (CRC32) of such object. Several false positives are caused by objects being removed from linked lists (e.g. allocation pools) and temporarily breaking the reference chain since kmemleak runs concurrently with such list mutation primitives.

The jiffies shown for unreferenced objects isn't always meaningful to people debugging kernel memory leaks. This patch adds the age as well to the displayed information. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

The put_object() function may free the object if the use_count dropped to 0. There shouldn't be further accesses to such object unless it is known that the use_count is non-zero. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

This function was taking non-necessary arguments which can be determined by kmemleak. The patch also modifies the calling sites.

With the slab allocator, if off-slab management is enabled for the kmem_caches used by kmemleak, it leads to recursive calls into kmemleak_alloc(). Off-slab management can be triggered by other config options increasing the slab size, e.g. DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.

The destination keyring specified to request_key() and co. is made available to the process that instantiates the key (the slave process started by /sbin/request-key typically). This is passed in the request_key_auth struct as the dest_keyring member. keyctl_instantiate_key and keyctl_negate_key() call get_instantiation_keyring() to get the keyring to attach the newly constructed key to at the end of instantiation. This may be given a specific keyring into which a link will be made later, or it may be asked to find the keyring passed to request_key(). In the former case, it returns a keyring with the refcount incremented by lookup_user_key(); in the latter case, it returns the keyring from the request_key_auth struct - and does _not_ increment the refcount. The latter case will eventually result in an oops when the keyring prematurely runs out of references and gets destroyed. The effect may take some time to show up as the key is destroyed lazily. To fix this, the keyring returned by get_instantiation_keyring() must always have its refcount incremented, no matter where it comes from. This can be tested by setting /etc/request-key.conf to: #OP TYPE DESCRIPTION CALLOUT INFO PROGRAM ARG1 ARG2 ARG3 ... #====== ======= =============== =============== =============================== create * test:* * |/bin/false %u %g %d %{user:_display} negate * * * /bin/keyctl negate %k 10 @u and then doing: keyctl add user _display aaaaaaaa @u while keyctl request2 user test:x test:x @u && keyctl list @u; do keyctl request2 user test:x test:x @u; sleep 31; keyctl list @u; done which will oops eventually. Changing the negate line to have @u rather than %S at the end is important as that forces the latter case by passing a special keyring ID rather than an actual keyring ID.

Call compat_unimap_ioctl, not do_unimap_ioctl. This was broken by commit e9216651. The compat_unimap_ioctl was originally called do_unimap_ioctl in fs/compat_ioctl.h which got moved to drivers/char/vt_ioctl.c. In that patch, the caller was not updated and consequently called the native handler.

There is a possible race condition in clockdomain code handling hw supported idle transitions. When multiple autodeps dependencies are being added or removed, a transition of still remaining dependent powerdomain can result in false readings of the state counter. This is especially fatal for off mode state counter, as it could result in a driver not noticing a context loss. Fixed by disabling hw supported state transitions when autodeps are being changed.
