Hi all,
Today, I found some kernel message about memeleaking.As follows:
unreferenced object 0xffff8800b6e6b980 (size 64):

But the problem is not memleak, but the stack.
I noticed "[<ffffffffa00a20a7>] nfsd_last_thread+0x47/0x70 [nfsd]".But the real module is mvsas.
Why the kernel print nfsd?
I added some debuginfo in func mvs_init.
diff --git a/drivers/scsi/mvsas/mv_init.c b/drivers/scsi/mvsas/mv_init.c
index cc59dff..d34ce01 100644
--- a/drivers/scsi/mvsas/mv_init.c

int rc;
mvs_stt = sas_domain_attach_transport(&mvs_transport_ops);
+ printk(KERN_ERR"%s:0x%lx\n", __func__, _THIS_IP_);
if (!mvs_stt)
return -ENOMEM;
The result is "[ 3.781487] mvs_init:0xffffffffa00a2000"
I think because the __init attribute.When mvs_init execd,those memeory removed and the address space alse removed.So after func nfsd_last_thread used those address.
Is it a bug?
