I tried to fix this one too, but couldn't come up with a proper way of unwinding both kobject_init_and_add() and ttm_pool_mm_shrink_init(): ret = kobject_init_and_add(&_manager->kobj, &ttm_pool_kobj_type, &glob->kobj, "pool"); if (unlikely(ret != 0)) { kobject_put(&_manager->kobj); _manager = NULL; return ret; } ttm_pool_mm_shrink_init(_manager); Calling kobject_put() after a failed kobject_init_and_add() seemed wrong, and it also appears to be missing a kfree(), so I didn't want to mess it up any further. Added a few people to Cc that touched this file most, maybe one of them can have a look, or they already have a patch waiting to get merged.
That isn't urgent, isn't it? So I would say I put it on my TODO list and I'm going to take care of it no later than 4.17.
Otherwise Roger or me could take a look tomorrow. Regards, Christian. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
