Possible 2.4.18 ipv4 memory leak? [SOLVED!]
Quoted 4 lines · Tim Schmielau
There seem to be quite a few fixes for memory leaks since 2.4.18, some network/ethernet related:

I followed that link and the second and third lines seemed *very* interesting. I looked at that patch:
http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.4/[email protected]
and back ported it to our 2.4.18 tree (very easy) and that fixed the problem.
The file was in arch/ppc/8260_io/fcc_enet.c, however the 8260_io directory became cpm2_io in later versions.
Thanks very much, Tim!
