Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RDMA/cma: Fix kmemleak in rdma_core observed during blktests nvme/rdma use siw

When running blktests nvme/rdma, the following kmemleak issue will appear.

kmemleak: Kernel memory leak detector initialized (mempool available:36041) kmemleak: Automatic memory scanning thread started kmemleak: 2 new suspected memory leaks (see /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak) kmemleak: 8 new suspected memory leaks (see /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak) kmemleak: 17 new suspected memory leaks (see /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak) kmemleak: 4 new suspected memory leaks (see /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak)
