From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== commit 5539b3c938d64a60cb1fc442ac3ce9263d52de0c upstream. Memory allocated and references taken by of_gpiochip_add and acpi_gpiochip_add were never released on errors in gpiochip_add (e.g. failure to find free gpio range). Fixes: 391c970c0dd1 ("of/gpio: add default of_xlate function if device has a node pointer") Fixes: 664e3e5ac64c ("gpio / ACPI: register to ACPI events automatically") Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c | 10 ++++++---- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c b/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c index 0dee0e0c247a..aed1a6216b6b 100644 --- a/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c +++ b/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c @@ -1216,18 +1216,20 @@ int gpiochip_add(struct gpio_chip *chip) spin_unlock_irqrestore(&gpio_lock, flags); + if (status) + goto fail; + #ifdef CONFIG_PINCTRL INIT_LIST_HEAD(&chip->pin_ranges); #endif of_gpiochip_add(chip); - if (status) - goto fail; - status = gpiochip_export(chip); - if (status) + if (status) { + of_gpiochip_remove(chip); goto fail; + } pr_debug("gpiochip_add: registered GPIOs %d to %d on device: %s\n", chip->base, chip->base + chip->ngpio - 1, -- 2.2.2 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
