Descripción

*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> gpu: host1x: Fix memory leak of device names<br /> <br /> The device names allocated by dev_set_name() need be freed<br /> before module unloading, but they can not be freed because<br /> the kobject&amp;#39;s refcount which was set in device_initialize()<br /> has not be decreased to 0.<br /> <br /> As comment of device_add() says, if it fails, use only<br /> put_device() drop the refcount, then the name will be<br /> freed in kobejct_cleanup().<br /> <br /> device_del() and put_device() can be replaced with<br /> device_unregister(), so call it to unregister the added<br /> successfully devices, and just call put_device() to the<br /> not added device.<br /> <br /> Add a release() function to device to avoid null release()<br /> function WARNING in device_release(), it&amp;#39;s empty, because<br /> the context devices are freed together in<br /> host1x_memory_context_list_free().
