This leaks little cma_kobj's all over the floor. :)

I thought kobject_put(cma_kobj_root) should deal with it. No?

If this fails when i > 0, there will be cma_kobj instances that
were stashed in the cma_areas[] array. But this code only deletes
the most recently allocated cma_kobj, not anything allocated on
previous iterations of the loop.

Oh, I misunderstood that destroying of root kobject will release
children recursively. Seems not true. Go back to old version.

OK. As long as you are spinning a new version, let's fix up the naming to
be a little better, too. In this case, with a mildly dizzying mix of cma's
and kobjects, it actually makes a real difference. I wouldn't have asked,
but the above cma->kobj->kobj chain really made it obvious for me just now.

So instead of this (in cma.h):

struct cma_kobject {
	struct cma *cma;
	struct kobject kobj;
};

struct cma {
...
	struct cma_kobject *kobj;
};

, how about approximately this:

struct cma_kobject_wrapper {
	struct cma *parent;
	struct kobject kobj;
};

struct cma {
...
	struct cma_kobject_wrapper *cma_kobj_wrapper;
};


...thus allowing readers of cma_sysfs.c to read that file more easily.


+               kfree(cma->kobj);
+               cma->kobj = NULL;
+       }
+       kobject_put(cma_kobj_root);
+
+       return err;
  }
  subsys_initcall(cma_sysfs_init);
