* [PATCH] clk: mmp: pxa168: Fix memory leak in pxa168_clk_init() @ 2023-12-10 17:52 Kuan-Wei Chiu 2023-12-11 13:19 ` Conor Dooley 2023-12-17 1:15 ` Stephen Boyd 0 siblings, 2 replies; 4+ messages in thread From: Kuan-Wei Chiu @ 2023-12-10 17:52 UTC (permalink / raw) To: mturquette, sboyd Cc: duje.mihanovic, conor.dooley, linux-clk, linux-kernel, Kuan-Wei Chiu In cases where mapping of mpmu/apmu/apbc registers fails, the code path does not handle the failure gracefully, potentially leading to a memory leak. This fix ensures proper cleanup by freeing the allocated memory for 'pxa_unit' before returning.

I apologize for any inconvenience. I will be more careful in selecting the recipients for my patches in the future. > I wonder, is there actually any point in freeing these, isn't the system > going to fail to actually boot if these allocations fail? > I'm not familiar with the boot process. I noticed similar cleanup in related code (e.g., clk-of-pxa1928.c) and thought it might be an oversight in pxa168. If releasing memory here isn't essential, I'm inclined to drop the patch. However, if the cleanup is necessary, I believe additional iounmap, similar to commit 19b9f29 (clk:mmp:clk-of-pxa910: Free memory and Unmap region obtained by kzmalloc and of_iomap), may be required. If necessary, I'm willing to send a v2 patch with the additional changes.
