Subject: [PATCH] HID: nintendo: release the player ID when LED setup fails
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 03:49:28 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <179001656825.91284.1468613120745540918.idr-bug-07@gmail.com> (raw)
joycon_leds_create() allocates a player ID before allocating the LED
names and registering the LEDs. If one of those later steps fails,
nintendo_hid_probe() jumps to err_io_stop and skips the ID cleanup.
The failed probe leaves the allocated ID in nintendo_player_id_allocator.
Use err_ida for this failure, as the power supply and input setup error
paths already do. If the ID allocation itself failed, player_id is
U32_MAX and ida_free() leaves the allocator untouched.
Fixes: 5307de63d71d ("HID: nintendo: use ida for LED player id")

The modified hid-nintendo.o compiled with x86 allmodconfig and W=1.
I have not tested this on a controller or injected LED setup failures.
