Package: nfs-kernel-server
Version: 1:1.0.10-6
Severity: important
On a busy NFS server, rpc.mountd starts to slowly eat a _lot_ of memory. I
usually restart
it when the amount of memory reaches 1.6Gb (which is approx. 10% of the system
memory).
This is after approx. 2 weeks of uptime.
This bug looks a lot like the bug described here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.nfs/13479/focus=13480
When I look at the /proc/<pid of rpc.mountd>/smaps, the memory is allocated to
[heap]:
00512000-1eb07000 rw-p 00512000 00:00 0 [heap]
Size: 497620 kB
Rss: 497596 kB
Shared_Clean: 0 kB
Shared_Dirty: 0 kB
Private_Clean: 0 kB
Private_Dirty: 497596 kB
If this bug is already fixed in new upstream versions (didn't check), do you
think it's
possible to backport the fix to stable and ask for it's inclusion in a stable
point release?
Greetings,
Rik

Description:
nfs-common - NFS support files common to client and server
nfs-kernel-server - Kernel NFS server support
nhfsstone - NFS benchmark program
Closes: 423108
Changes:
nfs-utils (1:1.0.10-6+etch.1) stable; urgency=medium
.
* Backport two memory leak fixes from unstable that together could bring
down a busy rpc.mountd quite fast. (Closes: #423108)
* In add_name(), free() the old pointer in all code branches. The old code
did it only when the malloc() failed, which was an oversight.
* In client_compose(), free() the hostent structure returned before
exiting. Normally, gethostbyaddr() returns a pointer to a static
struct, but this hostent comes from either get_reliable_hostbyaddr() or
get_hostent(), both which return a pointer they privately xmalloc()ed,
which thus can and should be free()d.
