Subject: [PATCH] slub: sysfs_slab_remove should free kmem_cache when debug is enabled
Date: Wed, 22 Jul 2009 17:03:57 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1248253437-23313-1-git-send-email-dfeng@redhat.com> (raw)
kmem_cache_destroy use sysfs_slab_remove to release the kmem_cache,
but when CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is enabled, sysfs_slab_remove just release
related kobject, the whole kmem_cache is missed to release and cause
a memory leak.
