In order to easily free resources allocated by 'thermal_zone_create_device_groups()' we need 2 new helper functions. The first one undoes 'thermal_zone_create_device_groups()'. The 2nd one undoes 'create_trip_attrs()', which is a function called by 'thermal_zone_create_device_groups()'. Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx> --- These functions will be used in patch 2/3 in order to simplify 'thermal_release()' I've tried to implement it as close a possible as the way the resources have been allocated. However, in 'thermal_release()', the code is simplier without some additionnal 'if'. No sure if we should prefer consistancy with allocation or simplicity of code. --- drivers/thermal/thermal_core.h | 1 + drivers/thermal/thermal_sysfs.c | 29 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 30 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/thermal/thermal_core.h b/drivers/thermal/thermal_core.h index 2412b3759e16..27e3b1df7360 100644 --- a/drivers/thermal/thermal_core.h +++ b/drivers/thermal/thermal_core.h @@ -71,6 +71,7 @@ int thermal_build_list_of_policies(char *buf); /* sysfs I/F */ int thermal_zone_create_device_groups(struct thermal_zone_device *, int); +void thermal_zone_destroy_device_groups(struct thermal_zone_device *); void thermal_cooling_device_setup_sysfs(struct thermal_cooling_device *); /* used only at binding time */ ssize_t diff --git a/drivers/thermal/thermal_sysfs.c b/drivers/thermal/thermal_sysfs.c index a694de907a26..eb95d64b9446 100644 --- a/drivers/thermal/thermal_sysfs.c +++ b/drivers/thermal/thermal_sysfs.c @@ -605,6 +605,24 @@ static int create_trip_attrs(struct thermal_zone_device *tz, int mask) return 0; } +/** + * destroy_trip_attrs() - create attributes for trip points + * @tz: the thermal zone device + * + * helper function to free resources alocated by create_trip_attrs() + */ +static void destroy_trip_attrs(struct thermal_zone_device *tz) +{ + if (!tz) + return; + + kfree(tz->trip_type_attrs); + kfree(tz->trip_temp_attrs); + if (tz->ops->get_trip_hyst) + kfree(tz->trip_hyst_attrs); + kfree(tz->trips_attribute_group.attrs); +} + int thermal_zone_create_device_groups(struct thermal_zone_device *tz, int mask) { @@ -637,6 +655,17 @@ int thermal_zone_create_device_groups(struct thermal_zone_device *tz, return 0; } +void thermal_zone_destroy_device_groups(struct thermal_zone_device *tz) +{ + if (!tz) + return; + + if (tz->trips) + destroy_trip_attrs(tz); + + kfree(tz->device.groups); +} + /* sys I/F for cooling device */ static ssize_t thermal_cooling_device_type_show(struct device *dev, -- 2.11.0 -- 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
