[PATCH 4.4 59/93] mm/hugetlb: fix potential double free in hugetlb_register_node() error path

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

 



From: Miaohe Lin <linmiaohe@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit cc2205a67dec5a700227a693fc113441e73e4641 ]

In hugetlb_sysfs_add_hstate(), we would do kobject_put() on hstate_kobjs
when failed to create sysfs group but forget to set hstate_kobjs to NULL.
Then in hugetlb_register_node() error path, we may free it again via
hugetlb_unregister_node().
