Subject: [PATCH v1 1/2] block: brd: destroy xa on allocation failure
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 12:20:43 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260831152044.166353-2-ivanrwcm25@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260831152044.166353-1-ivanrwcm25@gmail.com>
xa_init() runs before blk_alloc_disk(); on error the path called
brd_free_device() without xa_destroy(), leaking the xarray state.
