Subject: [PATCH 6.1.y] Fix memory leak in io_wq_create() on success path
Date: Thu,  6 Aug 2026 22:23:14 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260806142314.557312-1-shinnkka1@gmail.com> (raw)

The commit 657ca82526d0 introduced a temporary allowed_mask cpumask in
io_wq_create(), which was freed only on the error path.  This caused a
memory leak of cpumask_size() bytes on every successful io_wq_create().

Fixes: 657ca82526d0 ("io_uring/io-wq: inherit cpuset of cgroup in io worker")
