The refcounting for mpol's doesn't look good in general. I'm more curious as to what releases the refcounts. alloc_page_vma(), for instance, does get_vma_policy() which eventually takes a reference, without ever releasing the reference it acquires. get_vma_policy() itself uses a similar idiom to that used in aglitke's patch. I think mpol refcounting needs to be addressed elsewhere besides this patch. -- wli - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
