The following shell command triggers that scenario: for ((i=0; i<2; i++)); do srp_daemon -oac | while read line; do echo $line >/sys/class/infiniband_srp/srp-mlx4_0-1/add_target done done unreferenced object 0xffff88021b24a220 (size 8): comm "srp_daemon", pid 56421, jiffies 4295006762 (age 4240.750s) hex dump (first 8 bytes): 68 6f 73 74 35 38 00 a5 host58.. backtrace: [] kmemleak_alloc+0x7a/0xc0 [] __kmalloc_track_caller+0xfe/0x160 [] kvasprintf+0x5b/0x90 [] kvasprintf_const+0x8d/0xb0 [] kobject_set_name_vargs+0x3c/0xa0 [] dev_set_name+0x3c/0x40 [] scsi_host_alloc+0x327/0x4b0 [] srp_create_target+0x4e/0x8a0 [ib_srp] [] dev_attr_store+0x1b/0x20 [] sysfs_kf_write+0x4a/0x60 [] kernfs_fop_write+0x14e/0x180 [] __vfs_write+0x2f/0xf0 [] vfs_write+0xa4/0x100 [] SyS_write+0x54/0xc0 [] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x6f Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Johannes Thumshirn Reviewed-by: Sagi Grimberg Reviewed-by: Lee Duncan Cc: Christoph Hellwig Cc: Hannes Reinecke Cc: stable Signed-off-by: Martin K.
