[ Upstream commit 3b5a39979dafea9d0cd69c7ae06088f7a84cdafa ] Driver/net/can/slcan.c is derived from slip.c. Memory leak was detected by Syzkaller in slcan. Same issue exists in slip.c and this patch is addressing the leak in slip.c. Here is the slcan memory leak trace reported by Syzkaller: BUG: memory leak unreferenced object 0xffff888067f65500 (size 4096): comm "syz-executor043", pid 454, jiffies 4294759719 (age 11.930s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 73 6c 63 61 6e 30 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 slcan0.......... 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<00000000a06eec0d>] __kmalloc+0x18b/0x2c0 [<0000000083306e66>] kvmalloc_node+0x3a/0xc0 [<000000006ac27f87>] alloc_netdev_mqs+0x17a/0x1080 [<0000000061a996c9>] slcan_open+0x3ae/0x9a0 [<000000001226f0f9>] tty_ldisc_open.isra.1+0x76/0xc0 [<0000000019289631>] tty_set_ldisc+0x28c/0x5f0 [<000000004de5a617>] tty_ioctl+0x48d/0x1590 [<00000000daef496f>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x1c7/0x1510 [<0000000059068dbc>] ksys_ioctl+0x99/0xb0 [<000000009a6eb334>] __x64_sys_ioctl+0x78/0xb0 [<0000000053d0332e>] do_syscall_64+0x16f/0x580 [<0000000021b83b99>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 [<000000008ea75434>] 0xfffffffffffffff Cc: "David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
