            Bug ID: 256714
           Summary: Memory leaks when detaching a device
           Product: Base System
           Version: 13.0-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any

proposed patch

Overview
--------

I identified a few memory leaks that occur when detaching a device. The
routetbl leak depends on the FIB_ALGO option.

There are 3 new leaks when unmounting devices compared to 12.2.

- pfil_head_unregister() should free the ph. This is a typical use, implying
that memory should be freed and it's not the callers responsibility:

                pfil_head_unregister(priv->pfil);
                priv->pfil =3D NULL;


- in6_purgeifaddr() was removing an item from a list, and then deleting it.=
 The
only problem is that `nd6_prefix_del()` does reference counting and this may
not be the last reference. instead leave it on the list so it can be still
properly deleted later on by nd6_purge().

- the new in6_fib_algo.c code uses the rn_* radix tree functions.
rn_detachhead() doesn't free all rn_mklist objects.

Steps to Reproduce
------------------


# vmstat -m | grep -E 'ip6ndp | routetbl | pfil'
         pfil    17     2K       -       17  64,128
     routetbl   126    14K       -      425=20
32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096,8192
       ip6ndp    10     2K       -       18  64,256
# devctl attach pci0:3:0:0
# ifconfig vmx0 172.16.129.201/24 up
# devctl detach pci0:3:0:0
# vmstat -m | grep -E 'ip6ndp | routetbl | pfil'
         pfil    18     2K       -       18  64,128
     routetbl   151    14K       -      509=20
32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048,4096,8192
       ip6ndp    11     2K       -       21  64,256


Actual Results
--------------

Increase in networking device related memory after attaching and detaching a
device

Expected Results
----------------

All memory is freed

Additional Information
----------------------

Diff attached to fix leaks.


For the lradix6_destroy() issue, it's a workaround because passing the root=
 of
the tree to rn_detachhead() is leaking the memory allocated in
rn_new_radix_mask(). However, I'm not sure it's possible to safely free that
memory in a single walk of the radix tree and address the leak from within
rn_delete(). If it turns out to be necessary to do a second pass, doing so =
on
the flattened list of nodes in lr->radix_mem is convenient. It could also be
done from inside rn_detachhead() with an extra rn_walktree().
