ioctx_alloc(): fix vma (and file) leak on failure
commit deeb8525 upstream. If we fail past the aio_setup_ring(), we need to destroy the mapping. We don't need to care about anybody having found ctx, or added requests to it, since the last failure exit is exactly the failure to make ctx visible to lookups. Reproducer (based on one by Joe Mario <jmario@redhat.com>): void count(char *p) { char s[80]; printf("%s: ", p); fflush(stdout); sprintf(s, "/bin/cat /proc/%d/maps|/bin/fgrep -c '/[aio] (deleted)'", getpid()); system(s); } int main() { io_context_t *ctx; int created, limit, i, destroyed; FILE *f; count("before"); if ((f = fopen("/proc/sys/fs/aio-max-nr", "r")) == NULL) perror("opening aio-max-nr"); else if (fscanf(f, "%d", &limit) != 1) fprintf(stderr, "can't parse aio-max-nr\n"); else if ((ctx = calloc(limit, sizeof(io_context_t))) == NULL) perror("allocating aio_context_t array"); else { for (i = 0, created = 0; i < limit; i++) { if (io_setup(1000, ctx + created) == 0) created++; } for (i = 0, destroyed = 0; i < created; i++) if (io_destroy(ctx[i]) == 0) destroyed++; printf("created %d, failed %d, destroyed %d\n", created, limit - created, destroyed); count("after"); } } Found-by: Joe Mario <jmario@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Kamal Mostafa <kamal@canonical.com>
