Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

tipc_rcv() invokes tipc_node_find() twice, which returns a reference of the specified tipc_node object to "n" with increased refcnt. When tipc_rcv() returns or a new object is assigned to "n", the original local reference of "n" becomes invalid, so the refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced. The issue happens in some paths of tipc_rcv(), which forget to decrease the refcnt increased by tipc_node_find() and will cause a refcnt leak. Fix this issue by calling tipc_node_put() before the original object pointed by "n" becomes invalid. Signed-off-by:Xiyu Yang <xiyuyang19@fudan.edu.cn> Signed-off-by:
