From: Julia Lawall <ju...@diku.dk> At this point, ehv_pic has been allocated but not stored anywhere, so it should be freed before leaving the function.
A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @exists@ local idexpression x; statement S,S1; expression E; identifier fl; expression *ptr != NULL; @@ x = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...); ... if (x == NULL) S <... when != x when != if (...) { <+...kfree(x)...+> } when any when != true x == NULL x->fl ...> ( if (x == NULL) S1 | if (...) { ... when != x when forall ( return \(0\|<+...x...+>\|ptr\); | * return ...; ) } ) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <ju...@diku.dk> --- arch/powerpc/sysdev/ehv_pic.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/sysdev/ehv_pic.c b/arch/powerpc/sysdev/ehv_pic.c index af1a5df..b6731e4 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/sysdev/ehv_pic.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/sysdev/ehv_pic.c @@ -280,6 +280,7 @@ void __init ehv_pic_init(void) if (!ehv_pic->irqhost) { of_node_put(np); + kfree(ehv_pic); return; } _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
