Subject: [PATCH] lib/test_hmm: use kvfree() to free kvcalloc() allocations
Date: Wed, 13 May 2026 16:25:25 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260513082525.154036-1-hao.ge@linux.dev> (raw)
Coccinelle scripts/coccinelle/api/kfree_mismatch.cocci reports
the following warnings:
lib/test_hmm.c:1256:15-16: WARNING kvmalloc is used to allocate this memory at line 1191
lib/test_hmm.c:1257:15-16: WARNING kvmalloc is used to allocate this memory at line 1196
Fix this by replacing kfree() with kvfree() to correctly handle the
vmalloc() fallback path of kvcalloc().
Fixes: 775465fd26a3 ("lib/test_hmm: add zone device private THP test infrastructure")
