Subject: [PATCH 01/11] PCI: Free device name when pci_setup_device() fails
Date: Mon, 9 Nov 2026 23:07:01 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109210714.3862-2-ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261109210714.3862-1-ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com>
pci_setup_device() calls dev_set_name(), which allocates the name, before
it can fail on an unknown Header Type. Its callers then free the device
with kfree() because device_initialize() has not yet been called, so the
name is never freed.
Free the name in the error path of pci_setup_device().
Fixes: 1fa5ae857bb1 ("driver core: get rid of struct device's bus_id string array")

CardBus disabled case will reuse the same label after the move, thus
add the rollback path in this patch.
