From 24c037ebf5723d4d9ab0996433cee4f96c292a4d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2014 15:55:25 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] exit: pidns: alloc_pid() leaks pid_namespace if child_reaper is exiting alloc_pid() does get_pid_ns() beforehand but forgets to put_pid_ns() if it fails because disable_pid_allocation() was called by the exiting child_reaper. We could simply move get_pid_ns() down to successful return, but this fix tries to be as trivial as possible. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov Reviewed-by: "Eric W.
