It is a standalone entity describing an entry in the `ieee802154_llsec_table.keys` list. Maybe you are confusing it with `struct ieee802154_llsec_key`? When mac802154_llsec_key_add() is called, `struct ieee802154_llsec_key_entry` objects are allocated using kzalloc() and are linked into the list. `struct mac802154_llsec_key` object is allocated only if it has not been allocated yet for some other llsec_key_id, otherwise its refcount is incremented. Its lifecycle is managed with llsec_key_{get|put} primitives. A pointer to this object is passed into `struct ieee802154_llsec_key_entry`. So the only way to reach `struct ieee802154_llsec_key_entry` objects is through the list they belong to and they should be freed when they are unlinked from the list. E.g. see mac802154_llsec_destroy() where for &sec->table.keys this sequence of llsec_key_put() for mkey and kfree_sensitive() for list entry is done. > > Thanks. > > Otherwise the patch looks correct to me. > > - Alex > -- Fedor
