It looks to me like they are allocated in init_binder_device(). So why are calling misc_deregister? And it looks like the kfree(proc->context->name); is wrong as well because that's from the "device_names = kstrdup(binder_devices_param, GFP_KERNEL);" in binder_init(). To be honest, I'm a bit confused why we're not doing this in module_exit(). regards, dan carpenter _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
