[PATCH v4.14.y 2/2] rpmsg: Fix kfree() of static memory on setting driver_override

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

 



From: Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzysztof.kozlowski@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 42cd402b8fd4672b692400fe5f9eecd55d2794ac upstream.

The driver_override field from platform driver should not be initialized
from static memory (string literal) because the core later kfree() it,
for example when driver_override is set via sysfs.

Use dedicated helper to set driver_override properly.

Fixes: 950a7388f02b ("rpmsg: Turn name service into a stand alone driver")
Fixes: c0cdc19f84a4 ("rpmsg: Driver for user space endpoint interface")
