Looking at it a bit more, cdev_init() calls kobject_init(), and kobject_init() requires a matching call to kobject_put(). Nothing is calling kobject_put() in this situation.

But I'm not sure which one is better. My point is that no one calling the cdev_add() call should have to do this type of "cleanup" The cdev code should do it automatically, we don't want to have to audit every user of cdev_add() today, and in the future for forever, to ensure they got it right. Let's fix it up in the cdev code itself please. The kobject in a cdev is a very odd thing, it's not the "normal" type of kobject that you expect, so the cdev code should handle all of that on its own and that should not "leak" into any caller. thanks, greg k-h ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread
