From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> The free is not strictly necessary, because as long as the tc_index_array field is not NULL, the free will performed by the calling context, in the function asd_destroy_ha_caches. But doing it here in this case, makes this case consistent with the rest of the function. Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> --- Alternatively, the frees could be dropped from the subsequent block of error-handling code. drivers/scsi/aic94xx/aic94xx_hwi.c | 5 ++++- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/scsi/aic94xx/aic94xx_hwi.c b/drivers/scsi/aic94xx/aic94xx_hwi.c index 81b736c..f7c093c 100644 --- a/drivers/scsi/aic94xx/aic94xx_hwi.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/aic94xx/aic94xx_hwi.c @@ -228,8 +228,11 @@ static int asd_init_scbs(struct asd_ha_struct *asd_ha) bitmap_bytes = (asd_ha->seq.tc_index_bitmap_bits+7)/8; bitmap_bytes = BITS_TO_LONGS(bitmap_bytes*8)*sizeof(unsigned long); asd_ha->seq.tc_index_bitmap = kzalloc(bitmap_bytes, GFP_KERNEL); - if (!asd_ha->seq.tc_index_bitmap) + if (!asd_ha->seq.tc_index_bitmap) { + kfree(asd_ha->seq.tc_index_array); + asd_ha->seq.tc_index_array = NULL; return -ENOMEM; + } spin_lock_init(&seq->tc_index_lock); -- 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
