Subject: [PATCH net v2 2/2] ionic: free port_info when probe fails after the port is set up
Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2026 16:03:31 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261015-ionic-port-info-lifetime-v2-2-57232013fd79@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261015-ionic-port-info-lifetime-v2-0-57232013fd79@amd.com>

ionic_probe() allocates the port_info DMA buffer via ionic_setup_one()
-> ionic_port_init(). If probe then fails anywhere after that, it
unwinds through err_out_pci, which never calls ionic_port_reset();
ionic_dev_teardown() and ionic_clear_pci() do not touch port_info, and
so the buffer is leaked. The call was lost when the setup code was
moved into ionic_setup_one().

Since ionic_remove() already frees the port_info DMA buffer with
ionic_port_reset(), call that on the probe error path too. Every path
to err_out_pci runs after ionic_setup_one() succeeded, so the BARs are
still mapped and the firmware gets a PORT_RESET before the buffer is
freed, the same order as in ionic_remove().

Fixes: 0de38d9f1dba ("ionic: extract common bits from ionic_probe")
