Hello, I have looked at the source file for the Marvell SATA support driver once more. I would appreciate if a specific implementation detail can be clarified there. Static source code analysis can point out that functions like the following are called by the mv_platform_probe() function. https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/tree/drivers/ata/sata_mv.c?id=80c75a0f1d81922bf322c0634d1e1a15825a89e6#n4055 * ata_host_alloc_pinfo http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/ata/libata-core.c?v=4.3#L5768 * devm_kzalloc http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/include/linux/device.h?v=4.3#L645 The value "-ENOMEM" will be returned if one of these function calls failed. Can it be that any system resources (like memory) are not appropriately released if any calls of this sequence succeeded before the failure? Is the use of the single jump label "err" also suspicious here?
