I'm confused. Looking at drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.c: static void virtballoon_remove(struct virtio_device *vdev) { struct virtio_balloon *vb = vdev->priv; ... kfree(vb); } I think you should do the same here, vdev->priv is allocated in virtio_pmem_probe. But maybe I am missing something important here :) >> >>> + nvdimm_bus_unregister(nvdimm_bus); >>> + vdev->config->del_vqs(vdev); >>> + vdev->config->reset(vdev); >>> +} >>> + -- Thanks, David / dhildenb
