3.16.7-ckt6 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> 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: Luis Henriques <luis.henriques@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c | 11 +++++++---- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c b/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c index 810c84fd00c4..aea93a2f69b4 100644 --- a/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c +++ b/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c @@ -1223,6 +1223,9 @@ 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 @@ -1230,12 +1233,12 @@ int gpiochip_add(struct gpio_chip *chip) of_gpiochip_add(chip); acpi_gpiochip_add(chip); - if (status) - goto fail; - status = gpiochip_export(chip); - if (status) + if (status) { + acpi_gpiochip_remove(chip); + of_gpiochip_remove(chip); goto fail; + } pr_debug("%s: registered GPIOs %d to %d on device: %s\n", __func__, chip->base, chip->base + chip->ngpio - 1, -- 2.1.4 -- 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
