[PATCH 00/16] usb: gadget: amd5536udc: fix memory leaks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This amd5536udc was a complete mess. The major problems that i could
find are:

1) if udc_pci_probe() fails in any stage then it just calls the
udc_pci_remove() to handle error. And udc_pci_remove() works with
struct udc *dev which we get from pci_get_drvdata(pdev). But we do the
pci_set_drvdata(pdev, dev) almost at the end of probe. So basically
incase of error we are handling the error by dereferencing a NULL
pointer.

2) udc_pci_remove() does a BUG_ON(dev->driver != NULL) and dev->driver
will be set only if probe is success. So that means if probe fails then
probe will call udc_pci_remove() for error handling and udc_pci_remove()
will inturn halts the kernel by calling BUG().

And apart from these numerous memory leaks and not releasing of
resources. Here comes a rewrite of few of the functions in an
attempt to fix these.
