Hi YueHaibing, Thank you for the patch! Perhaps something to improve: [auto build test WARNING on net-next/master] [also build test WARNING on v5.0-rc8 next-20190228] [if your patch is applied to the wrong git tree, please drop us a note to help improve the system] url: https://github.com/0day-ci/linux/commits/Yue-Haibing/appletalk-Fix-use-after-free-in-atalk_proc_exit/20190228-195802 config: arm64-allyesconfig (attached as .config) compiler: aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc (Debian 8.2.0-11) 8.2.0 reproduce: wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/intel/lkp-tests/master/sbin/make.cross -O ~/bin/make.cross chmod +x ~/bin/make.cross # save the attached .config to linux build tree GCC_VERSION=8.2.0 make.cross ARCH=arm64 All warnings (new ones prefixed by >>): >> WARNING: vmlinux.o(.init.text+0x1ebba4): Section mismatch in reference from the function atalk_init() to the function .exit.text:atalk_proc_exit() The function __init atalk_init() references a function __exit atalk_proc_exit(). This is often seen when error handling in the init function uses functionality in the exit path. The fix is often to remove the __exit annotation of atalk_proc_exit() so it may be used outside an exit section. --- 0-DAY kernel test infrastructure Open Source Technology Center https://lists.01.org/pipermail/kbuild-all Intel Corporation
