It was _not_ touching partitions - all claims (i.e. open_dev() calls in dm-table.c) had been for dev == MKDEV(3.0). What userland tools do you have and how are they invoked? Having a leak like that (it looks like we have a struct dm_dev leaking there, so destructor is never called) is a bug in any case, but I really wonder what had triggered these opens in the first place. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
