Subject: [PATCH 4.19 30/33] scsi: snic: Fix possible memory leak if device_add() fails
Date: Sun, 13 Aug 2023 23:19:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230813211705.029288575@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230813211703.915807095@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Zhu Wang <wangzhu9@huawei.com>
commit 41320b18a0e0dfb236dba4edb9be12dba1878156 upstream.
If device_add() returns error, the name allocated by dev_set_name() needs
be freed. As the comment of device_add() says, put_device() should be used
to give up the reference in the error path. So fix this by calling
put_device(), then the name can be freed in kobject_cleanp().
Fixes: c8806b6c9e82 ("snic: driver for Cisco SCSI HBA")
