[PATCH] ACPI: PM: s2idle: Fix memory leak in lpi_device_get_constraints()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add proper cleanup of lpi_constraints_table to prevent memory leaks
when  the driver is reloaded or lpi_device_get_constraints() is called
multiple times.

The function lpi_device_get_constraints() allocates memory for
lpi_constraints_table using kcalloc() but never frees any previously
allocated memory. This leads to a memory leak on subsequent calls to
the function.

Fix this by:
1. Adding a new helper function lpi_constraints_table_free() that properly
   frees the allocated memory and resets the table pointer and size
2. Calling this cleanup function before allocating new memory in
   lpi_device_get_constraints()

This ensures that any previously allocated lpi_constraints_table is
properly freed before allocating a new one, preventing memory leaks.
