[ Upstream commit 0868b99c214a3d55486c700de7c3f770b7243e7c ] When bitmap is resized, the old kalloced chunks just are not released once the resized bitmap starts to use new space. This fixes in particular kmemleak reports like this one: unreferenced object 0xffff8f4311e9c000 (size 4096): comm "lvm", pid 19333, jiffies 4295263268 (age 528.265s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 02 80 02 80 02 80 02 80 02 80 02 80 02 80 02 80 ................ 02 80 02 80 02 80 02 80 02 80 02 80 02 80 02 80 ................ backtrace: [<ffffffffa69471ca>] kmemleak_alloc+0x4a/0xa0 [<ffffffffa628c10e>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x14e/0x2e0 [<ffffffffa676cfec>] bitmap_checkpage+0x7c/0x110 [<ffffffffa676d0c5>] bitmap_get_counter+0x45/0xd0 [<ffffffffa676d6b3>] bitmap_set_memory_bits+0x43/0xe0 [<ffffffffa676e41c>] bitmap_init_from_disk+0x23c/0x530 [<ffffffffa676f1ae>] bitmap_load+0xbe/0x160 [<ffffffffc04c47d3>] raid_preresume+0x203/0x2f0 [dm_raid] [<ffffffffa677762f>] dm_table_resume_targets+0x4f/0xe0 [<ffffffffa6774b52>] dm_resume+0x122/0x140 [<ffffffffa6779b9f>] dev_suspend+0x18f/0x290 [<ffffffffa677a3a7>] ctl_ioctl+0x287/0x560 [<ffffffffa677a693>] dm_ctl_ioctl+0x13/0x20 [<ffffffffa62d6b46>] do_vfs_ioctl+0xa6/0x750 [<ffffffffa62d7269>] SyS_ioctl+0x79/0x90 [<ffffffffa6956d41>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1f/0xc2 Signed-off-by: Zdenek Kabelac <zkabelac@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@verizon.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
