If some of the allocations fail between the dev_set_name() and the device_register() then the name will not be freed. Fix this by moving dev_set_name() directly in front of the call to device_register(). Fixes: a2aa24734d9d ("HSI: Add common DT binding for HSI client devices") Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Jason, this is the most common type of error I see with device_register(). Is there a downside to calling dev_set_name() later? Presumably it's printed out somewhere, but I feel like just moving the dev_set_name() is almost always the best and simplest fix. drivers/hsi/hsi_core.c | 3 +-- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/hsi/hsi_core.c b/drivers/hsi/hsi_core.c index c3fb5beb846e..ec90713564e3 100644 --- a/drivers/hsi/hsi_core.c +++ b/drivers/hsi/hsi_core.c @@ -210,8 +210,6 @@ static void hsi_add_client_from_dt(struct hsi_port *port, if (err) goto err; - dev_set_name(&cl->device, "%s", name); - err = hsi_of_property_parse_mode(client, "hsi-mode", &mode); if (err) { err = hsi_of_property_parse_mode(client, "hsi-rx-mode", @@ -293,6 +291,7 @@ static void hsi_add_client_from_dt(struct hsi_port *port, cl->device.release = hsi_client_release; cl->device.of_node = client; + dev_set_name(&cl->device, "%s", name); if (device_register(&cl->device) < 0) { pr_err("hsi: failed to register client: %s\n", name); put_device(&cl->device); -- 2.30.2
