If users try to install act_tunnel_key 'set' rules with duplicate values
of 'index', the tunnel metadata are allocated, but never released. Then,
kmemleak complains as follows:
# tc a a a tunnel_key set src_ip 1.1.1.1 dst_ip 2.2.2.2 id 42 index 111
# echo clear > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
# tc a a a tunnel_key set src_ip 1.1.1.1 dst_ip 2.2.2.2 id 42 index 111
Error: TC IDR already exists.
We have an error talking to the kernel
# echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak

This problem theoretically happens also in case users attempt to setup a
geneve rule having wrong configuration data, or when the kernel fails to
allocate 'params_new'. Ensure that tunnel_key_init() releases the tunnel
metadata also in the above conditions.

README
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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
