Subject: [PATCH 1/1] drivers: rtc: Add module_put on error path in rtc_proc_open
Date: Fri, 28 Jan 2011 16:10:55 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1296220255-29069-1-git-send-email-strakh@ispras.ru> (raw)
From: Alexander Strakh <cromlehg@gmail.com>
In file drivers/rtc/rtc-proc.c in linux-2.6.37:
The seq_open function can return -ENOMEM.
86 if (!try_module_get(THIS_MODULE))
87 return -ENODEV;
88
89 return single_open(file, rtc_proc_show, rtc);
In this case before exiting (line 89) from rtc_proc_open
the module_put(THIS_MODULE) must be called.
