[PATCH 6.1 444/885] drivers: base: transport_class: fix possible memory leak

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

 



From: Yang Yingliang <yangyingliang@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit a86367803838b369fe5486ac18771d14723c258c ]

Current some drivers(like iscsi) call transport_register_device()
failed, they don't call transport_destroy_device() to release the
memory allocated in transport_setup_device(), because they don't
know what was done, it should be internal thing to release the
resource in register function. So fix this leak by calling destroy
function inside register function.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
