But, as I said, this driver doesn't use MMIO, so "leaks" only I/O port > addresses. OK. I interpreted "leak" as memory leak... So the problem is print of pointer addresses that are unused. But if they are, shouldn't the pointers be NULL ? (I am absolutely not familiar with this driver, never looked at it). Guo, Can you check if the values printed are actually correct and correspond to resources used by the driver ? If they are not, simply remove the ata_port_desc() calls. > > MBR, Sergey > -- Damien Le Moal Western Digital Research
