Linux kernel source tree
Inflight file descriptors by SCM_RIGHTS hold references to the
struct file.
AF_UNIX sockets could hold references to each other, forming
reference cycles.
Once such sockets are close()d without the fd recv()ed, they
will be unaccessible from userspace but remain in kernel.
__unix_gc() garbage-collects skb with the dead file descriptors
and frees them by __skb_queue_purge().
Let's set SKB_DROP_REASON_SOCKET_CLOSE there.
# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/skb/kfree_skb/enable
# python3
>>> from socket import *
>>> from array import array
>>>
>>> # Create a reference cycle
>>> s1 = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM)
>>> s1.bind('')
>>> s1.sendmsg([b"nop"], [(SOL_SOCKET, SCM_RIGHTS, array("i", [s1.fileno()]))], 0, s1.getsockname())
>>> s1.close()
>>>
>>> # Trigger GC
>>> s2 = socket(AF_UNIX)
>>> s2.close()
# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_pipe
...

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
