From f461a1d80c865e5ec4d24107adbab8b010b60e32 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julia Lawall Date: Wed, 10 Sep 2008 13:57:43 +0200 Subject: arch/x86/kernel/kdebugfs.c: introduce missing kfree Error handling code following a kmalloc should free the allocated data. Note that at the point of the change, node has not yet been stored in d, so it is not affected by the existing cleanup code. The semantic match that finds the problem is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // @r exists@ local idexpression x; statement S; expression E; identifier f,l; position p1,p2; expression *ptr != NULL; @@ ( if ((x@p1 = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...)) == NULL) S | x@p1 = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...); ... if (x == NULL) S ) <... when != x when != if (...) { <+...x...+> } x->f = E ...> ( return \(0\|<+...x...+>\|ptr\); | return@p2 ...; ) @script:python@ p1 << r.p1; p2 << r.p2; @@ print "* file: %s kmalloc %s return %s" % (p1[0].file,p1[0].line,p2[0].line) // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- arch/x86/kernel/kdebugfs.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'arch/x86') diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/kdebugfs.c b/arch/x86/kernel/kdebugfs.c index f2d43bc7551..ff7d3b0124f 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kernel/kdebugfs.c +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/kdebugfs.c @@ -139,6 +139,7 @@ static int __init create_setup_data_nodes(struct dentry *parent) if (PageHighMem(pg)) { data = ioremap_cache(pa_data, sizeof(*data)); if (!data) { + kfree(node); error = -ENXIO; goto err_dir; } -- cgit v1.2.3
