Temporary strings with volt_* file names should be released after the debugfs entries are created. While at it, also simplify the string allocation, and use just snprintf() to create the name. The patch eliminates kmemleak reports with the following stack trace (multiple objects depending on HW): unreferenced object 0xcedbc5a0 (size 64): comm "swapper", pid 1, jiffies 4294929375 (age 423.734s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 76 6f 6c 74 5f 39 37 35 30 30 30 00 00 00 00 00 volt_975000..... 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<c012fee0>] create_object+0x104/0x208 [<c012dbc8>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0xf0/0x17c [<c0013f64>] omap_sr_probe+0x314/0x420 [<c02a1724>] platform_drv_probe+0x18/0x1c [<c02a088c>] driver_probe_device+0xc8/0x188 [<c02a09b4>] __driver_attach+0x68/0x8c [<c02a00ac>] bus_for_each_dev+0x44/0x74 [<c029f9e0>] bus_add_driver+0xa0/0x228 [<c02a0cac>] driver_register+0xa8/0x130 [<c02a1b2c>] platform_driver_probe+0x18/0x8c [<c0013c1c>] sr_init+0x40/0x74 [<c005a554>] do_one_initcall+0xc8/0x1a0 [<c00084f4>] kernel_init+0x150/0x218 [<c0065d64>] kernel_thread_exit+0x0/0x8 [<ffffffff>] 0xffffffff Signed-off-by: Aaro Koskinen <aaro.koskinen@xxxxxxxxx> --- v2: Get rid of kmalloc(). arch/arm/mach-omap2/smartreflex.c | 15 +++------------ 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/arm/mach-omap2/smartreflex.c b/arch/arm/mach-omap2/smartreflex.c index 77ecebf..e54db84 100644 --- a/arch/arm/mach-omap2/smartreflex.c +++ b/arch/arm/mach-omap2/smartreflex.c @@ -927,19 +927,10 @@ static int __init omap_sr_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) } for (i = 0; i < sr_info->nvalue_count; i++) { - char *name; - char volt_name[32]; - - name = kzalloc(NVALUE_NAME_LEN + 1, GFP_KERNEL); - if (!name) { - dev_err(&pdev->dev, "%s: Unable to allocate memory" - " for n-value directory name\n", __func__); - return -ENOMEM; - } + char name[NVALUE_NAME_LEN + 1]; - strcpy(name, "volt_"); - sprintf(volt_name, "%d", volt_data[i].volt_nominal); - strcat(name, volt_name); + snprintf(name, sizeof(name), "volt_%d", + volt_data[i].volt_nominal); (void) debugfs_create_x32(name, S_IRUGO | S_IWUGO, nvalue_dir, &(sr_info->nvalue_table[i].nvalue)); } -- 1.5.6.5 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
