This problem was newly found in RHEL 6.2 by coverity difference scan on RHEL packages 6.1 → 6.2. Version of lvm2 during the test was 2.02.87. a) daemons/dmeventd/dmeventd.c:749: Calling allocation function "dm_task_create". b) daemons/dmeventd/dmeventd.c:755: leaked_storage: Variable "dmt" going out of scope leaks the storage it points to.
Fixed by upstream commit: https://www.redhat.com/archives/lvm-devel/2011-August/msg00118.html
Adding QA ack for 6.2. Based on comment #0, there's really no way to test this issue. This bug will mostly be marked verified (SanityOnly) once final 6.2 regression testing has been completed.
Marking verify based on comment #5.
