Subject: [PATCH] clocksource/drivers/bcm2835_timer: fix memory leak of timer
Date: Thu, 19 Dec 2019 21:32:46 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191219213246.34437-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>
Currently when setup_irq fails the error exit path will leak the
recently allocated timer structure. Originally the code would
throw a panic but a later commit changed the behaviour to return
via the err_iounmap path and hence we now have a memory leak. Fix
this by adding a err_timer_free error path that kfree's timer.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Resource Leak")
Fixes: 524a7f08983d ("clocksource/drivers/bcm2835_timer: Convert init function to return error")
