Subject: [PATCH v8 01/16] platform/x86: lenovo-wmi-helpers: Fix memory leak in lwmi_dev_evaluate_int()
Date: Mon, 6 Apr 2026 20:13:45 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260406201400.438221-2-derekjohn.clark@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260406201400.438221-1-derekjohn.clark@gmail.com>
From: Rong Zhang <i@rong.moe>
lwmi_dev_evaluate_int() leaks output.pointer when retval == NULL (found
by sashiko.dev [1]).
Fix it by moving `ret_obj = output.pointer' outside of the `if (retval)'
block so that it is always freed by the __free cleanup callback.
No functional change intended.
Fixes: e521d16e76cd ("platform/x86: Add lenovo-wmi-helpers")
