This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled exit: pidns: alloc_pid() leaks pid_namespace if child_reaper is exiting to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt4. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From ef4e29ba82173f2b58027d8a2de156655c6b8631 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2014 15:55:25 -0800 Subject: exit: pidns: alloc_pid() leaks pid_namespace if child_reaper is exiting commit 24c037ebf5723d4d9ab0996433cee4f96c292a4d upstream. alloc_pid() does get_pid_ns() beforehand but forgets to put_pid_ns() if it fails because disable_pid_allocation() was called by the exiting child_reaper. We could simply move get_pid_ns() down to successful return, but this fix tries to be as trivial as possible. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: "Eric W.
