From: Yang Yingliang <yangyingliang@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ff2f5ec5d009844ec28f171123f9e58750cef4bf ] Inject fault while probing module, if device_register() fails, but the refcount of kobject is not decreased to 0, the name allocated in dev_set_name() is leaked. Fix this by calling put_device(), so that name can be freed in callback function kobject_cleanup(). unreferenced object 0xffff00c01aba2100 (size 128): comm "systemd-udevd", pid 1259, jiffies 4294903284 (age 294.152s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 68 6e 61 65 30 00 00 00 18 21 ba 1a c0 00 ff ff hnae0....!...... 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<0000000034783f26>] slab_post_alloc_hook+0xa0/0x3e0 [<00000000748188f2>] __kmem_cache_alloc_node+0x164/0x2b0 [<00000000ab0743e8>] __kmalloc_node_track_caller+0x6c/0x390 [<000000006c0ffb13>] kvasprintf+0x8c/0x118 [<00000000fa27bfe1>] kvasprintf_const+0x60/0xc8 [<0000000083e10ed7>] kobject_set_name_vargs+0x3c/0xc0 [<000000000b87affc>] dev_set_name+0x7c/0xa0 [<000000003fd8fe26>] hnae_ae_register+0xcc/0x190 [hnae] [<00000000fe97edc9>] hns_dsaf_ae_init+0x9c/0x108 [hns_dsaf] [<00000000c36ff1eb>] hns_dsaf_probe+0x548/0x748 [hns_dsaf] Fixes: 6fe6611ff275 ("net: add Hisilicon Network Subsystem hnae framework support") Signed-off-by: Yang Yingliang <yangyingliang@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@xxxxxxxxxx> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221018122451.1749171-1-yangyingliang@xxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/net/ethernet/hisilicon/hns/hnae.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/hisilicon/hns/hnae.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/hisilicon/hns/hnae.c index 00fafc0f8512..430eccea8e5e 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/hisilicon/hns/hnae.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/hisilicon/hns/hnae.c @@ -419,8 +419,10 @@ int hnae_ae_register(struct hnae_ae_dev *hdev, struct module *owner) hdev->cls_dev.release = hnae_release; (void)dev_set_name(&hdev->cls_dev, "hnae%d", hdev->id); ret = device_register(&hdev->cls_dev); - if (ret) + if (ret) { + put_device(&hdev->cls_dev); return ret; + } __module_get(THIS_MODULE); -- 2.35.1
