From: Shang XiaoJing <shangxiaojing@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 8cfa238a48f34038464b99d0b4825238c2687181 ] ixgbevf_init_module() won't destroy the workqueue created by create_singlethread_workqueue() when pci_register_driver() failed. Add destroy_workqueue() in fail path to prevent the resource leak. Similar to the handling of u132_hcd_init in commit f276e002793c ("usb: u132-hcd: fix resource leak") Fixes: 40a13e2493c9 ("ixgbevf: Use a private workqueue to avoid certain possible hangs") Signed-off-by: Shang XiaoJing <shangxiaojing@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeed@xxxxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Konrad Jankowski <konrad0.jankowski@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbevf/ixgbevf_main.c | 10 +++++++++- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbevf/ixgbevf_main.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbevf/ixgbevf_main.c index 2d6ac61d7a3e..4510a84514fa 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbevf/ixgbevf_main.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbevf/ixgbevf_main.c @@ -4878,6 +4878,8 @@ static struct pci_driver ixgbevf_driver = { **/ static int __init ixgbevf_init_module(void) { + int err; + pr_info("%s\n", ixgbevf_driver_string); pr_info("%s\n", ixgbevf_copyright); ixgbevf_wq = create_singlethread_workqueue(ixgbevf_driver_name); @@ -4886,7 +4888,13 @@ static int __init ixgbevf_init_module(void) return -ENOMEM; } - return pci_register_driver(&ixgbevf_driver); + err = pci_register_driver(&ixgbevf_driver); + if (err) { + destroy_workqueue(ixgbevf_wq); + return err; + } + + return 0; } module_init(ixgbevf_init_module); -- 2.35.1
