We should call kobject_put() in case of kobject_init_and_add() failure: lib/kobject.c:459 * If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to * properly clean up the memory associated with the object. This is the so I suggest: diff --git a/fs/nilfs2/sysfs.c b/fs/nilfs2/sysfs.c index 68e8d61e28dd..e8717f4ba2a1 100644 --- a/fs/nilfs2/sysfs.c +++ b/fs/nilfs2/sysfs.c @@ -1026,6 +1026,7 @@ int nilfs_sysfs_create_device_group(struct super_block *sb) kobject_del(&nilfs->ns_dev_kobj); free_dev_subgroups: + kobject_put(&nilfs->ns_dev_kobj); kfree(nilfs->ns_dev_subgroups); failed_create_device_group: This patch should fix 2 memory leaks :) With regards, Pavel Skripkin
