commit 3921426 (usb: dwc3: core: move event buffer allocation out of dwc3_core_init()) introduced a memory leak of the coherent memory we use as event buffers on dwc3 driver. If the driver is compiled as a dynamically loadable module and use constantly loads and unloads the driver, we will continue to leak the coherent memory allocated during ->probe() because dwc3_free_event_buffers() is never called during ->remove(). Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # v3.7 v3.8 Signed-off-by: Felipe Balbi <balbi@xxxxxx> --- This patch in particular will be sent during v3.9-rc1 cycle. I found this leak by just looking at the code. drivers/usb/dwc3/core.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/drivers/usb/dwc3/core.c b/drivers/usb/dwc3/core.c index 3a4004a..f00c749 100644 --- a/drivers/usb/dwc3/core.c +++ b/drivers/usb/dwc3/core.c @@ -575,6 +575,7 @@ static int dwc3_remove(struct platform_device *pdev) break; } + dwc3_free_event_buffers(dwc); dwc3_core_exit(dwc); return 0; -- 1.8.1.rc1.5.g7e0651a -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
