commit d051cef784de4d54835f6b6836d98a8f6935772c upstream. If jffs2_build_filesystem() in jffs2_do_mount_fs() returns an error, we can observe the following kmemleak report: -------------------------------------------- unreferenced object 0xffff88811b25a640 (size 64): comm "mount", pid 691, jiffies 4294957728 (age 71.952s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<ffffffffa493be24>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x584/0x880 [<ffffffffa5423a06>] jffs2_sum_init+0x86/0x130 [<ffffffffa5400e58>] jffs2_do_mount_fs+0x798/0xac0 [<ffffffffa540acf3>] jffs2_do_fill_super+0x383/0xc30 [<ffffffffa540c00a>] jffs2_fill_super+0x2ea/0x4c0 [...] unreferenced object 0xffff88812c760000 (size 65536): comm "mount", pid 691, jiffies 4294957728 (age 71.952s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb ................ bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb ................ backtrace: [<ffffffffa493a449>] __kmalloc+0x6b9/0x910 [<ffffffffa5423a57>] jffs2_sum_init+0xd7/0x130 [<ffffffffa5400e58>] jffs2_do_mount_fs+0x798/0xac0 [<ffffffffa540acf3>] jffs2_do_fill_super+0x383/0xc30 [<ffffffffa540c00a>] jffs2_fill_super+0x2ea/0x4c0 [...] -------------------------------------------- This is because the resources allocated in jffs2_sum_init() are not released. Call jffs2_sum_exit() to release these resources to solve the problem.

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.
