Subject: [PATCH for mm-stable] mm/damon/lru_sort: fix potential memory leak in damon_lru_sort_init()
Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2022 17:04:58 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220714170458.49727-1-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
'damon_lru_sort_init()' returns an error when 'damon_select_ops()' fails
without freeing 'ctx' which allocated before. This commit fixes the
potential memory leak by freeing 'ctx' under the situation.
Commit 40e983cca927 ("mm/damon: introduce DAMON-based LRU-lists
Sorting"), which caused the problem is not in the mainline but
mm-stable. Please meld this into the commit.
Fixes: 40e983cca927 ("mm/damon: introduce DAMON-based LRU-lists Sorting")
