Fix block queue and elevator memory leak in scsi_alloc_sdev
commit f7c9c6bb14f3104608a3a83cadea10a6943d2804 upstream. When looking at memory consumption issues I noticed quite a lot of memory in the kmalloc-2048 bucket: OBJS ACTIVE USE OBJ SIZE SLABS OBJ/SLAB CACHE SIZE NAME 6561 6471 98% 2.30K 243 27 15552K kmalloc-2048 Over 15MB. slub debug shows that cfq is responsible for almost all of it: # sort -nr /sys/kernel/slab/kmalloc-2048/alloc_calls 6402 .cfq_init_queue+0xec/0x460 age=43423/43564/43655 pid=1 cpus=4,11,13 In scsi_alloc_sdev we do scsi_alloc_queue but if slave_alloc fails we don't free it with scsi_free_queue. The patch below fixes the issue: OBJS ACTIVE USE OBJ SIZE SLABS OBJ/SLAB CACHE SIZE NAME 135 72 53% 2.30K 5 27 320K kmalloc-2048 # cat /sys/kernel/slab/kmalloc-2048/alloc_calls 3 .cfq_init_queue+0xec/0x460 age=3811/3876/3925 pid=1 cpus=4,11,13 Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <JBottomley@Parallels.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
