When userspace registers IRQ notification eventfds via the VFIO_DEVICE_SET_IRQS ioctl, vfio_ap_set_request_irq() and vfio_ap_set_cfg_change_irq() each call eventfd_ctx_fdget(), which takes a reference on the eventfd_ctx and stores it in matrix_mdev->req_trigger and matrix_mdev->cfg_chg_trigger respectively. These references are dropped only when userspace explicitly replaces or clears them via a subsequent SET_IRQS call. If the device is closed without that explicit teardown - because the guest exits, the VM process crashes, or the device file is simply closed - neither vfio_ap_mdev_close_device() nor the remove path releases these references. The eventfd_ctx backing objects and their associated file references therefore leak for the lifetime of the kernel. Fix this by introducing vfio_ap_mdev_release_eventfds() and calling it from vfio_ap_mdev_close_device() after vfio_ap_mdev_unset_kvm(). The VFIO core guarantees that close_device is called before vfio_unregister_group_dev() returns in the remove path, so fixing close_device is sufficient to cover both teardown paths. Note: ~~~~ The matrix_dev->mdevs lock must be held during the call to vfio_ap_mdev_release_eventfds(). There is a small window between the calls to vfio_ap_mdev_unset_kvm() which gets and releases the update locks and the acquisition of the matrix_dev->mdevs_lock mutex during which it is possible - although highly unlikely during normal operation - whereby a concurrent SET_IRQS call can get in. Taking matrix_dev->mdevs_lock around vfio_ap_mdev_release_eventfds() is sufficient to make this race-free. The SET_IRQS ioctl path writes req_trigger and cfg_chg_trigger only from vfio_ap_mdev_ioctl(), which holds mdevs_lock for its entire duration and always calls eventfd_ctx_put() on the previous value before storing the new one. Any number of concurrent SET_IRQS calls during the window between vfio_ap_mdev_unset_kvm() and the acquisition of mdevs_lock are therefore safe: each ioctl invocation puts the reference it found and installs a new one, leaving exactly one live reference in the field when it releases the lock. When release_eventfds subsequently acquires mdevs_lock it finds that single surviving reference and puts it. Conversely, a SET_IRQS call that loses the race and blocks on mdevs_lock will find the field NULL after release_eventfds finishes, take ownership of the reference it just created, and install it into a field that will never be read again - a transient leak. To close that final case, callers must ensure no new SET_IRQS ioctls can be issued after close_device() is called, which the VFIO core guarantees by releasing the device file before invoking close_device().
