[PATCH v2] nfs-rdma: Fix for FMR leaks

From: Allen Andrews
Date: Tue Apr 15 2014 - 16:34:54 EST


Two memory region leaks were found during testing:

1. rpcrdma_buffer_create: While allocating RPCRDMA_FRMR's
ib_alloc_fast_reg_mr is called and then ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list is
called. If ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list returns an error it bails out of
the routine dropping the last ib_alloc_fast_reg_mr frmr region creating a
memory leak. Added code to dereg the last frmr if
ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list fails.

2. rpcrdma_buffer_destroy: While cleaning up, the routine will only free
the MR's on the rb_mws list if there are rb_send_bufs present. However, in
rpcrdma_buffer_create while the rb_mws list is being built if one of the MR
allocation requests fail after some MR's have been allocated on the rb_mws
list the routine never gets to create any rb_send_bufs but instead jumps to
the rpcrdma_buffer_destroy routine which will never free the MR's on rb_mws
list because the rb_send_bufs were never created. This leaks all the MR's
on the rb_mws list that were created prior to one of the MR allocations
failing.

Issue(2) was seen during testing. Our adapter had a finite number of MR's
available and we created enough connections to where we saw an MR
allocation failure on our Nth NFS connection request. After the kernel
cleaned up the resources it had allocated for the Nth connection we noticed
that FMR's had been leaked due to the coding error described above.

Issue(1) was seen during a code review while debugging issue(2).
