Hello Jike Song, The patch 659643f7d814: "drm/i915/gvt/kvmgt: add vfio/mdev support to KVMGT" from Dec 8, 2016, leads to the following static checker warning: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gvt/kvmgt.c:969 intel_vgpu_ioctl() warn: calling kfree() when 'caps.buf' is always NULL. drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gvt/kvmgt.c 909 } else if (cmd == VFIO_DEVICE_GET_REGION_INFO) { 910 struct vfio_region_info info; 911 struct vfio_info_cap caps = { .buf = NULL, .size = 0 }; ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Set here. 912 int i, ret; 913 struct vfio_region_info_cap_sparse_mmap *sparse = NULL; 914 size_t size; 915 int nr_areas = 1; 916 int cap_type_id; 917 918 minsz = offsetofend(struct vfio_region_info, offset); 919 920 if (copy_from_user(&info, (void __user *)arg, minsz)) 921 return -EFAULT; 922 923 if (info.argsz < minsz) 924 return -EINVAL; 925 926 switch (info.index) { 927 case VFIO_PCI_CONFIG_REGION_INDEX: 928 info.offset = VFIO_PCI_INDEX_TO_OFFSET(info.index); 929 info.size = INTEL_GVT_MAX_CFG_SPACE_SZ; 930 info.flags = VFIO_REGION_INFO_FLAG_READ | 931 VFIO_REGION_INFO_FLAG_WRITE; 932 break; 933 case VFIO_PCI_BAR0_REGION_INDEX: 934 info.offset = VFIO_PCI_INDEX_TO_OFFSET(info.index); 935 info.size = vgpu->cfg_space.bar[info.index].size; 936 if (!info.size) { 937 info.flags = 0; 938 break; 939 } 940 941 info.flags = VFIO_REGION_INFO_FLAG_READ | 942 VFIO_REGION_INFO_FLAG_WRITE; 943 break; 944 case VFIO_PCI_BAR1_REGION_INDEX: 945 info.offset = VFIO_PCI_INDEX_TO_OFFSET(info.index); 946 info.size = 0; 947 info.flags = 0; 948 break; 949 case VFIO_PCI_BAR2_REGION_INDEX: 950 info.offset = VFIO_PCI_INDEX_TO_OFFSET(info.index); 951 info.flags = VFIO_REGION_INFO_FLAG_CAPS | 952 VFIO_REGION_INFO_FLAG_MMAP | 953 VFIO_REGION_INFO_FLAG_READ | 954 VFIO_REGION_INFO_FLAG_WRITE; 955 info.size = gvt_aperture_sz(vgpu->gvt); 956 957 size = sizeof(*sparse) + 958 (nr_areas * sizeof(*sparse->areas)); 959 sparse = kzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL); 960 if (!sparse) 961 return -ENOMEM; 962 963 sparse->nr_areas = nr_areas; 964 cap_type_id = VFIO_REGION_INFO_CAP_SPARSE_MMAP; 965 sparse->areas[0].offset = 966 PAGE_ALIGN(vgpu_aperture_offset(vgpu)); 967 sparse->areas[0].size = vgpu_aperture_sz(vgpu); 968 if (!caps.buf) { ^^^^^^^^ It's always NULL. 969 kfree(caps.buf); Freeing NULL is pointless. 970 caps.buf = NULL; 971 caps.size = 0; These were already zeroed out at the start of the function.
