Alexei,

Could you please comment on why I am seeing those memleaks being
reported on my ppc32 system ? Should they be marked as false positive
?

System is Mac Mini G4, git/master (4.15.0+), ppc.

Thanks for your time

hmm. looks real. Is there a reproducer?
Yonghong, lpm map not cleaning after itself?

Not really. I simply boot up my machine and wait for the first kmemleak scan.

I am not able to reproduce the issue. Tried with latest net-next on FC26 with kmemleak on. I only got this one after bootup,
'cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak' or
'echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
 cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak':

Not sure whether the above is a true issue or not.

However, by inspecting the code, I do find the trie_free in lpm_trie.c
may have missed freeing the trie memory.

The change likes below should work:
-bash-4.2$ git diff
diff --git a/kernel/bpf/lpm_trie.c b/kernel/bpf/lpm_trie.c
index 7b469d1..cecb259 100644

 }

Will propose a formal patch for this soon.
