x25_connect() invokes x25_get_neigh(), which returns a reference of the specified x25_neigh object to "x25->neighbour" with increased refcnt. When x25 connect success and returns, the reference still be hold by "x25->neighbour", so the refcount should be decreased in x25_disconnect() to keep refcount balanced. The reference counting issue happens in x25_disconnect(), which forgets to decrease the refcnt increased by x25_get_neigh() in x25_connect(), causing a refcnt leak. Fix this issue by calling x25_neigh_put() before x25_disconnect() returns. Signed-off-by: Xiyu Yang <xiyuyang19@fudan.edu.cn> Signed-off-by: Xin Tan <tanxin.ctf@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
