[PATCH net v3 0/3] net: netpoll: fix a memleak and create a selftest
Posted by Breno Leitao 4 days, 8 hours ago
Fix a memory leak issue on netpoll and create a netconsole test that exposes
the problem, when run with kmemleak enabled.

This is a merge of two patches I've sent individually and are merged on
the same patchset[1][2].

Changes in v3:
- this patchset is a merge of the fix and the selftest together as
recommended by Jakub.

Changes in v2:
- Reuse the netconsole creation from lib_netcons.sh. Thus, refactoring
  the create_dynamic_target() (Jakub)
- Move the "wait" to after all the messages has been sent.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250902-netconsole_torture-v1-1-03c6066598e9@debian.org
