Description Niels de Vos 2016-09-23 15:24:43 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1344714 +++

Description of problem:

The struct callback_inode_arg is a variable used by upcall infra for populating upcall entries. This variable is allocated using GF_CALLOC in glfs_h_poll_cache_invalidation(), but it also freedin FSAL_GLUSTER using free.
This will result in a crash when we try to remove a file from mount

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mainline

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. enable nfs-ganesha and export a volume 
2. mount the volume
3. create a file and delete it from the mount

Actual results:
ganesha server crashes

Expected results:
should not crash

    libglusterfs: add gf_get_mem_type()
    
    gfapi needs to provide a function towards applications to free memory
    that it allocated. Depending on how the application is compiled/linked,
    it could use a different memory allocator than Gluster itself. Therefore
    it is not safe for gfapi to request applications to free memory with
    'standard' free().
    
    Examples for this are Gluster allocated structures with GF_CALLOC() when
    memory accounting is enabled (the default). Some gfapi functions use
    malloc() to allocate memory as a workaround, but the free() from the
    jemalloc implementation should not be combined with the malloc() from
    glibc.
