Subject: [PATCH v2] ubi: block: fix memleak in ubiblock_create()

From: Li Nan <[email protected]>

If idr_alloc() fails, dev->gd will be put after goto out_cleanup_disk in
ubiblock_create(), but dev->gd has not been assigned yet at this time, and
'gd' will not be put anymore. Fix it by putting 'gd' directly.

Can it be nicer to use the term “memory leak” instead of “memleak”
in the patch subject?

Would the following wording variant be more desirable?

… anymore.
Thus pass the variable “gd” to a put_disk() call directly.


Would you like to add the tag “Fixes” accordingly?

Markus

The patch has already been applied:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=adbf4c4954e33e623897058a617c583d65a177f6

Thank you very much for your suggestion. I will pay attention to them in

There is another invalid reference to dev->gd if blk_mq_alloc_tag_set()
fails.

dev_err(disk_to_dev(dev->gd), "blk_mq_alloc_tag_set failed");
^^^^^^^

You are really very careful! I will fix it later.
