I wonder how/where are these objects referenced? If they are not leaked and referenced somewhere, KMEMLEAK should not report them as leaks. So even if this is a false positive for BPF, this is a true positive bug and something to fix for KMEMLEAK ;) And syzbot will probably re-create this bug report soon as this still happens and is not a one-off thing.
hi Dmitry, i haven't thought of it this way, but i guess you are right, it is a kmemleak bug, ideally kmemleak should be aware that there are still running processes holding references to bpf fd/anonymous inodes which in their turn hold references to allocated bpf maps
