This is a quite old kernel version, probably already fixed... Begin forwarded message:

As above, it seems that tcp sk memory leak, "sockets: used 13976123" illustrate that "net->core.sock_inuse" is too big, which increase in inet_create(socket create) or sk_clone_lock(child socket create) and decrease in __sk_free, I kill almost all of application layer program, but the "sockets: used" almostly not reduce. Do you have any suggestions for this problem, Thanks. -- You may reply to this email to add a comment. You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
