Subject: [PATCH iwl-net v2] i40e: Cleanup PTP pins on probe failure
Date: Tue, 7 Apr 2026 12:14:47 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260407161447.43645-1-tactii@gmail.com> (raw)
PTP pin structs are allocated early in probe, but never cleaned up.
Fix this by calling i40e_ptp_free_pins in the error path.
To support this, i40e_ptp_free_pins is added to the header and
pin_config is correctly nullified after being freed.
This has been an issue since i40e_ptp_alloc_pins was introduced.
Fixes: 1050713026a08 ("i40e: add support for PTP external synchronization clock")
