In dccp_v6_conn_request, after reqsk gets alloced and hashed into ehash table, reqsk's refcnt is set 3. one is for req->rsk_timer, one is for hlist, and the other one is for current using. The problem is when dccp_v6_conn_request returns and finishes using reqsk, it doesn't put reqsk. This will cause reqsk refcnt leaks and reqsk obj never gets freed. Jianlin found this issue when running dccp_memleak.c in a loop, the system memory would run out. dccp_memleak.c: int s1 = socket(PF_INET6, 6, IPPROTO_IP); bind(s1, &sa1, 0x20); listen(s1, 0x9); int s2 = socket(PF_INET6, 6, IPPROTO_IP); connect(s2, &sa1, 0x20); close(s1); close(s2); This patch is to put the reqsk before dccp_v6_conn_request returns, just as what tcp_conn_request does.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
