Message-Id: <1434545704-112470-7-git-send-email-jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2015 05:54:53 -0700 From: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@...el.com> To: davem@...emloft.net Cc: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@...el.com>, netdev@...r.kernel.org, nhorman@...hat.com, sassmann@...hat.com, jogreene@...hat.com, Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@...el.com> Subject: [net-next v2 06/17] fm10k: add call to fm10k_clean_all_rx_rings in fm10k_down From: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@...el.com> This prevents a memory leak in fm10k_set_ringparams. The leak occurs because we go down, change ring parameters, and then come up. However, fm10k_down on its own is not clearing the Rx rings. Since fm10k_up assumes the rings are clean we basically drop the buffers and leak a bunch of memory. Eventually we hit dirty page faults and reboot the system. This issue does not occur elsewhere because other flows that involve fm10k_down go through fm10k_close which immediately called fm10k_free_all_rx_resources which properly cleans the rings.
