Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.7 11/58] EDAC: Fix reference count leaks
Date: Sat, 8 Aug 2020 19:36:37 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200808233724.3618168-11-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200808233724.3618168-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Qiushi Wu <wu000273@umn.edu>
[ Upstream commit 17ed808ad243192fb923e4e653c1338d3ba06207 ]
When kobject_init_and_add() returns an error, it should be handled
because kobject_init_and_add() takes a reference even when it fails. If
this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to properly
clean up the memory associated with the object.
Therefore, replace calling kfree() and call kobject_put() and add a
missing kobject_put() in the edac_device_register_sysfs_main_kobj()
error path.
[ bp: Massage and merge into a single patch. ]
Fixes: b2ed215a3338 ("Kobject: change drivers/edac to use kobject_init_and_add")
