Subject: [PATCH v4] kernel/module: Fix mem leak in module_add_modinfo_attrs
Date: Tue, 11 Jun 2019 23:00:07 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190611150007.21064-1-yuehaibing@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190603144554.18168-1-yuehaibing@huawei.com>

In module_add_modinfo_attrs if sysfs_create_file
fails, we forget to free allocated modinfo_attrs
and roll back the sysfs files.

Fixes: 03e88ae1b13d ("[PATCH] fix module sysfs files reference counting")
Signed-off-by: YueHaibing <yuehaibing@huawei.com>

v4: call module_remove_modinfo_attrs only while i > 0
v3: reuse module_remove_modinfo_attrs
v2: free from '--i' instead of 'i--'
