CVE-2026-74386

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nvmet-tcp: fix page fragment cache leak in error path

In nvmet_tcp_alloc_queue(), when a connection is closed during the

allocation process (e.g., nvmet_tcp_set_queue_sock() returns -ENOTCONN),

the error handling jumps to out_destroy_sq and then to out_ida_remove

without draining the page fragment cache.

Although nvmet_tcp_free_cmd() is called in some error paths to release

individual page fragments, the underlying page cache reference held by

queue->pf_cache is never released. The first allocation using pf_cache

is the call to nvmet_tcp_alloc_cmd() for queue->connect, which happens

after ida_alloc() returns successfully. This results in a page leak each

time a connection fails during allocation, which could lead to memory

exhaustion over time if connections are repeatedly opened and closed.

Fix this by calling page_frag_cache_drain() before freeing the queue

structure in the out_ida_remove label.
