Sorry it took so long to reply. The > fail_rate label does not release the resources applied for in the > ieee80211_txq_setup_flows(). Or maybe I missed something? That's my point though - if we "goto fail_ifa" or "goto fail_wiphy_register", we have the same bug, no? So shouldn't the patch simply be this: diff --git a/net/mac80211/main.c b/net/mac80211/main.c index 846528850612..a42d1f0ef7a5 100644 --- a/net/mac80211/main.c +++ b/net/mac80211/main.c @@ -1442,6 +1442,7 @@ int ieee80211_register_hw(struct ieee80211_hw *hw) ieee80211_remove_interfaces(local); rtnl_unlock(); fail_rate: + ieee80211_txq_teardown_flows(local); fail_flows: ieee80211_led_exit(local); destroy_workqueue(local->workqueue); johannes
