Subject: [patch] efi: fix error handling in add_sysfs_runtime_map_entry()
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2015 16:46:28 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150421134628.GA9653@mwanda> (raw)
I spotted two (difficult to hit) bugs while reviewing this.
1) There is a double free bug because we unregister "map_kset" in
add_sysfs_runtime_map_entry() and also efi_runtime_map_init().
2) If we fail to allocate "entry" then we should return
ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) instead of NULL.
