Subject[RFC] squashfs: A possible memory leak in squashfs
Hello,

I have been trying to apply CMA feature to my platform, based on ver. 3.10.
And I am suffering failures of allocation in CMA area.
I made a patch like below (I copied it after kernel log) and found that a buffer-head is not released.
As you know the CMA try to migrate movable pages. If any buffer-head related to a page is not released CMA cannot migrate the page.

I am writing about my problem. Please reply me if you need any information.

Howto generate problem:
1. The chrome is stored in squashfs partition. The size of CMA area is 256MB.
2. start chrome
3. connect any site
4. About 100MB of CMA area is used. The remain of CMA area is free.
5. Try to allocate all memory (256MB) of CMA with dma_alloc_coherent.
6. Some buffer-heads are busy so that allocation is failed.
7. The busy buffer-head was released by squash_read_data and b_count of the buffer-head became 1.
8. The b_count of the busy buffer-head will never become 0. Even-if I turn off platform, it is not released.
9. Is it possible that a buffer-head is not released forever? And why?

Followings are kernel log messages.
At first buffer-head which is located at 0x9499a500 is released by squashfs_read_data.
I think the buffer-head contains a data of squashfs partition.
The referenct count of buffer-head become 1 becauseof the release.
I think the buffer-head must be released again but it is not.
Even-if I turn off the platform I cannot see the message that 0x9499a500 is released.

This is my patch to check buffer-head is released correctly.
I add a BH_Debug flag at bh_state_bits. It will be set if the buffer-head is busy (count is 1).
When the busy buffer-head is released it prints log message about released buffer-head.
