From 7e572222d3c9d67581f5409d7dbaf1e0e7b8de19 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Genoud Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2018 17:06:34 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] dmaengine: at_hdmac: fix memory leak in at_dma_xlate() commit 98f5f932254b88ce828bc8e4d1642d14e5854caa upstream. The leak was found when opening/closing a serial port a great number of time, increasing kmalloc-32 in slabinfo. Each time the port was opened, dma_request_slave_channel() was called. Then, in at_dma_xlate(), atslave was allocated with devm_kzalloc() and never freed. (Well, it was free at module unload, but that's not what we want). So, here, kzalloc is more suited for the job since it has to be freed in atc_free_chan_resources().
