From: Wen Xiong <wenxi...@linux.vnet.ibm.com> With nvme devive + T10 enabled, On a system it has 256GB and started logging /proc/meminfo & /proc/slabinfo for every minute and in an hour it increased by 15968128 kB or ~15+GB.. Approximately 256 MB / minute leaking.
/proc/meminfo | grep SUnreclaim... SUnreclaim: 6752128 kB SUnreclaim: 6874880 kB SUnreclaim: 7238080 kB .... SUnreclaim: 22307264 kB SUnreclaim: 22485888 kB SUnreclaim: 22720256 kB When testcases with T10 enabled call into __blkdev_direct_IO_simple, code doesn't free memory allocated by bio_integrity_alloc. The patch fixes the issue. HTX has been run with +60 hours without failure. failing stack: [36587.216329] [c000002ff60874a0] [c000000000bcac68] dump_stack+0xb0/0xf0 (unreliable) [36587.216349] [c000002ff60874e0] [c000000000bc8c94] panic+0x140/0x308 [36587.216407] [c000002ff6087570] [c000000000282530] out_of_memory+0x4e0/0x650 [36587.216465] [c000002ff6087610] [c00000000028a154] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0xf34/0x10b0 [36587.216534] [c000002ff6087810] [c00000000030b800] alloc_pages_current+0xc0/0x1d0 [36587.216603] [c000002ff6087870] [c00000000031907c] new_slab+0x46c/0x7d0 [36587.216661] [c000002ff6087950] [c00000000031bf00] ___slab_alloc+0x570/0x670 [36587.216718] [c000002ff6087a70] [c00000000031c05c] __slab_alloc+0x5c/0x90 [36587.216776] [c000002ff6087ad0] [c00000000031c1f4] kmem_cache_alloc+0x164/0x300 [36587.216845] [c000002ff6087b20] [c0000000002de120] mmap_region+0x3e0/0x6e0 [36587.216903] [c000002ff6087c00] [c0000000002de7cc] do_mmap+0x3ac/0x480 [36587.216960] [c000002ff6087c80] [c0000000002af244] vm_mmap_pgoff+0x114/0x160 [36587.217018] [c000002ff6087d60] [c0000000002db6b0] SyS_mmap_pgoff+0x230/0x300 [36587.217087] [c000002ff6087de0] [c000000000014eac] sys_mmap+0x8c/0xd0 [36587.217145] [c000002ff6087e30] [c00000000000b184] system_call+0x38/0xe0 [36587.217481] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Out of memory and no killable processes...
