Add a call to of_node_put in the error handling code following a call to of_find_node_by_path. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r exists@ local idexpression x; expression E,E1; statement S; @@ *x = (of_find_node_by_path |of_find_node_by_name |of_find_node_by_phandle |of_get_parent |of_get_next_parent |of_get_next_child |of_find_compatible_node |of_match_node )(...); ... if (x == NULL) S <... when != x = E *if (...) { ... when != of_node_put(x) when != if (...) { ... of_node_put(x); ... } ( return <+...x...+>; | * return ...; ) } ...> of_node_put(x); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/macintosh/via-pmu-led.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/macintosh/via-pmu-led.c b/drivers/macintosh/via-pmu-led.c index d242976..19c3718 100644 --- a/drivers/macintosh/via-pmu-led.c +++ b/drivers/macintosh/via-pmu-led.c @@ -92,8 +92,10 @@ static int __init via_pmu_led_init(void) if (dt == NULL) return -ENODEV; model = of_get_property(dt, "model", NULL); - if (model == NULL) + if (model == NULL) { + of_node_put(dt); return -ENODEV; + } if (strncmp(model, "PowerBook", strlen("PowerBook")) != 0 && strncmp(model, "iBook", strlen("iBook")) != 0 && strcmp(model, "PowerMac7,2") != 0 && -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
