Hi, Kentaro Suzuki-san gave me a bug report related to the garbage collection today.
The problem was brought by the recent bugfix patch and turned out to be causing a new memory leak problem for linux-2.6.30-rc6 and nilfs2-modules-2.0.13. This is the bugfix patch against 2.6.30-rc6. I'll send it to Linus and backport to the module package. Regards, Ryusuke Konishi -- From: Ryusuke Konishi <[email protected]> This fixes a new memory leak problem in garbage collection. The problem was brought by the bugfix patch ("nilfs2: fix lock order reversal in nilfs_clean_segments ioctl"). Thanks to Kentaro Suzuki for finding this problem.
