'rbuf' is locale to the ice_get_initial_sw_cfg() function. There is no point in using devm_kzalloc()/devm_kfree(). use kzalloc()/kfree() instead. Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx> --- As a side effect, it also require less memory. devm_kzalloc() has a small memory overhead, and requesting ICE_SW_CFG_MAX_BUF_LEN (i.e. 2048) bytes, 4096 are really allocated. --- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_switch.c | 6 ++---- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_switch.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_switch.c index 697feb89188c..eb6e19deb70d 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_switch.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_switch.c @@ -2274,9 +2274,7 @@ int ice_get_initial_sw_cfg(struct ice_hw *hw) int status; u16 i; - rbuf = devm_kzalloc(ice_hw_to_dev(hw), ICE_SW_CFG_MAX_BUF_LEN, - GFP_KERNEL); - + rbuf = kzalloc(ICE_SW_CFG_MAX_BUF_LEN, GFP_KERNEL); if (!rbuf) return -ENOMEM; @@ -2324,7 +2322,7 @@ int ice_get_initial_sw_cfg(struct ice_hw *hw) } } while (req_desc && !status); - devm_kfree(ice_hw_to_dev(hw), rbuf); + kfree(rbuf); return status; } -- 2.34.1
