If two processes mount same superblock, memory leak occurs:
CPU0 | CPU1 do_new_mount | do_new_mount fs_set_subtype | fs_set_subtype kstrdup | | kstrdup memrory leak |
Fix this by adding a write lock while calling fs_set_subtype.
Linus's tree already have refactoring patchset [1], one of them can fix this bug: c30da2e981a7 (fuse: convert to use the new mount API)
Since we did not merge the refactoring patchset in this branch, I create this patch.
