Subject: [PATCH v2] gpiolib: cdev: Fix resource leaks on errors in lineinfo_changed_notify()
Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2026 03:08:56 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260120030857.2144847-1-tzungbi@kernel.org> (raw)
On error handling paths, lineinfo_changed_notify() doesn't free the
allocated resources which results leaks. Fix it.
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Fixes: d4cd0902c156 ("gpio: cdev: make sure the cdev fd is still active before emitting events")
Signed-off-by: Tzung-Bi Shih <tzungbi@kernel.org>

v2:
- Drop the label "err_put_fp" and fput() in the error path directly.
- Add "cdev" prefix in title.
