Subject: [PATCH v3 3/5] lib: kunit_iov_iter: Fix memory leaks
Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2026 22:49:03 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260326214905.818170-4-lk@c--e.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260326214905.818170-1-lk@c--e.de>
Use vfree() instead of vunmap() to free the buffer allocated
by iov_kunit_create_buffer() because vunmap() does not honour
VM_MAP_PUT_PAGES. In order for this to work the page array
itself must not be managed by kunit.
Remove the folio_put() when destroying a folioq. This is handled
by vfree(), now.
Pointed out by sashiko.dev on a previous iteration of this series.
Tested by running the kunit test 10000 times in a loop.
