Fix a leak on dax_add_host() error, where "goto out_cleanup_dax" is done before setting pmem->dax_dev, which therefore issues the two following calls on NULL pointers: out_cleanup_dax: kill_dax(pmem->dax_dev); put_dax(pmem->dax_dev); Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Alasdair Kergon <agk@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Vishal Verma <vishal.l.verma@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Dave Jiang <dave.jiang@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Russell King <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: linux-arch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-cxl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-fsdevel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-mm@xxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-xfs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: nvdimm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --- drivers/nvdimm/pmem.c | 3 +-- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/nvdimm/pmem.c b/drivers/nvdimm/pmem.c index 4e8fdcb3f1c8..9fe358090720 100644 --- a/drivers/nvdimm/pmem.c +++ b/drivers/nvdimm/pmem.c @@ -566,12 +566,11 @@ static int pmem_attach_disk(struct device *dev, set_dax_nomc(dax_dev); if (is_nvdimm_sync(nd_region)) set_dax_synchronous(dax_dev); + pmem->dax_dev = dax_dev; rc = dax_add_host(dax_dev, disk); if (rc) goto out_cleanup_dax; dax_write_cache(dax_dev, nvdimm_has_cache(nd_region)); - pmem->dax_dev = dax_dev; - rc = device_add_disk(dev, disk, pmem_attribute_groups); if (rc) goto out_remove_host; -- 2.39.2
