Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] media: nuvoton: npcm-video: fix memory leaks in probe and remove
Date: Sat, 28 Mar 2026 14:47:17 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260328144718.68282-1-devnexen@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260327221905.267410-2-devnexen@gmail.com>
npcm_video_probe() allocates the npcm_video structure with kzalloc_obj()
but never frees it on any probe error path or in npcm_video_remove(),
leaking the allocation on every failed probe and every normal unbind.
Additionally, when npcm_video_setup_video() fails, the reserved memory
association established by of_reserved_mem_device_init() in
npcm_video_init() is not released, leaking the rmem_assigned_device
entry on the global list.
Fix both by adding kfree(video) to all probe error paths and to
npcm_video_remove(), and adding the missing
of_reserved_mem_device_release() call when npcm_video_setup_video()
fails.
Fixes: 46c15a4ff1f4 ("media: nuvoton: Add driver for NPCM video capture and encoding engine")
