Subject: [RFC PATCH] futex: Fix futex_waitv() hrtimer debug object leak on kcalloc error
Date: Wed, 14 Dec 2022 17:20:08 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221214222008.200393-1-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> (raw)

In a scenario where kcalloc() fails to allocate memory, the futex_waitv
system call immediately returns -ENOMEM without invoking
destroy_hrtimer_on_stack(). When CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_TIMERS=y, this
results in leaking a timer debug object.

Fixes: bf69bad38cf6 ("futex: Implement sys_futex_waitv()")
