commit93900337b9upstream. create_cpu_loop() calls smu_sat_get_sdb_partition() which does kmalloc() and returns the allocated buffer. In fact it's called twice, and neither buffer is freed. This results in a memory leak as reported by Erhard: unreferenced object 0xc00000047081f840 (size 32): comm "kwindfarm", pid 203, jiffies 4294880630 (age 5552.877s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): c8 06 02 7f ff 02 ff 01 fb bf 00 41 00 20 00 00 ...........A. .. 00 07 89 37 00 a0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ...7............ backtrace: [<0000000083f0a65c>] .smu_sat_get_sdb_partition+0xc4/0x2d0 [windfarm_smu_sat] [<000000003010fcb7>] .pm112_wf_notify+0x104c/0x13bc [windfarm_pm112] [<00000000b958b2dd>] .notifier_call_chain+0xa8/0x180 [<0000000070490868>] .blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x64/0x90 [<00000000131d8149>] .wf_thread_func+0x114/0x1a0 [<000000000d54838d>] .kthread+0x13c/0x190 [<00000000669b72bc>] .ret_from_kernel_thread+0x58/0x64 unreferenced object 0xc0000004737089f0 (size 16): comm "kwindfarm", pid 203, jiffies 4294880879 (age 5552.050s) hex dump (first 16 bytes): c4 04 01 7f 22 11 e0 e6 ff 55 7b 12 ec 11 00 00 ...."....U{..... backtrace: [<0000000083f0a65c>] .smu_sat_get_sdb_partition+0xc4/0x2d0 [windfarm_smu_sat] [<00000000b94ef7e1>] .pm112_wf_notify+0x1294/0x13bc [windfarm_pm112] [<00000000b958b2dd>] .notifier_call_chain+0xa8/0x180 [<0000000070490868>] .blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x64/0x90 [<00000000131d8149>] .wf_thread_func+0x114/0x1a0 [<000000000d54838d>] .kthread+0x13c/0x190 [<00000000669b72bc>] .ret_from_kernel_thread+0x58/0x64 Fix it by rearranging the logic so we deal with each buffer separately, which then makes it easy to free the buffer once we're done with it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
