I'm having a little trouble debugging this sunrpc module refcnt leak in nfsd. Perhaps a fresh pair of eyes can help.

nfsd leaks 3 references to the sunrpc module here:

  # echo -n "asdf 1234" >/proc/fs/nfsd/portlist
  bash: echo: write error: Protocol not supported

Now stop nfsd and try unloading the kernel modules:

  # systemctl stop nfs-server
  # systemctl stop nfs
  # systemctl stop proc-fs-nfsd.mount
  # systemctl stop var-lib-nfs-rpc_pipefs.mount
  # rmmod nfsd
  # rmmod nfs_acl
  # rmmod lockd
  # rmmod auth_rpcgss
  # rmmod sunrpc
  rmmod: ERROR: Module sunrpc is in use
  # lsmod | grep rpc
  sunrpc                315392  3

I have reproduced this from source with a tree based on Linux 4.2-rc3 and also with Linux 4.1.6-200.fc22.x86_64.

The following unmatched module_get() calls are recorded by perf record -e module:module_get -e module:module_put. Perhaps the backtrace is a little mangled because I don't see xdr_reserve_space() calls in svc_create_pooled() (even indirectly):

In this trace I modified nfs-utils nfsd to write to portlist but you get the same result with echo from a shell (as shown above).

Any ideas?

PATCH 1/1 nfsd: Fix nfsd leaks sunrpc module references

Stefan Hajnoczi reports,
nfsd leaks 3 references to the sunrpc module here:

  # echo -n "asdf 1234" >/proc/fs/nfsd/portlist
  bash: echo: write error: Protocol not supported

Now stop nfsd and try unloading the kernel modules:

  # systemctl stop nfs-server
  # systemctl stop nfs
  # systemctl stop proc-fs-nfsd.mount
  # systemctl stop var-lib-nfs-rpc_pipefs.mount
  # rmmod nfsd

  sunrpc                315392  3

It is caused by nfsd don't cleanup rpcb program for nfsd when destroying svc service after creating xprt fail.

Are you sure this is right?

For example, nfsd_create_serv calls svc_destroy on svc_bind failure, is it OK to call svc_rpcb_cleanup in that case?

The svc_rpcb_cleanup in nfsd_last_thread is called in svc_shutdown_net, svc_destroy never call it.

svc_shutdown_net is called in nfsd_destroy only nfsd_serv->sv_nrthreads == 1.

So that, it's ok calling svc_rpcb_cleanup in nfsd_last_thread always.

Is there anything I missing?
