Subject: [REF PATCH] mm/swap: fix swapon failure
Date: Mon, 9 Nov 2020 19:47:16 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1604922436-16597-1-git-send-email-alex.shi@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
One of my VM guest has a swapon issue:
root #swapon -v -f /swap1
swapon /swap1
swapon: /swap1: found swap signature: version 1, page-size 4, same byte order
swapon: /swap1: pagesize=4096, swapsize=1607467008, devsize=1607467008
swapon: /swap1: swapon failed: Invalid argument
and bisection report commit 822bca52ee7e "mm/swapfile.c: fix potential
memory leak in sys_swapon" cause the trouble.
Go through the context I found the exit_swap_address_space(p->type)
shouldn't be used in good result path. So just move it to error path.
Fixes: 822bca52ee7e ("mm/swapfile.c: fix potential memory leak in
sys_swapon")
