Subject: [GIT PULL 01/19 for v7.4] ipc misc
Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 12:14:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261016-ipc-7.4-rc1.misc-e31c975da358@brauner> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261016-vfs-v74-41eaf6c4712c@brauner>

Hey Linus,

/* Summary */

This fixes a leak in mqueue. A task in another thread group sharing the
file table could register an mq_notify() and exit without closing the
queue. The registration was never torn down and pinned the notification
skb, the netlink socket, a pid reference and a user namespace reference
forever. Stale registrations are released on inode eviction now.

/* Testing */

No build failures or warnings were observed.

/* Conflicts */
