commit 5c15abc4328ad696fa61e2f3604918ed0c207755 upstream. When the hfi1 driver is unloaded, kmemleak will report the following issue: unreferenced object 0xffff8888461a4c08 (size 8): comm "kworker/0:0", pid 5, jiffies 4298601264 (age 2047.134s) hex dump (first 8 bytes): 73 64 6d 61 30 00 ff ff sdma0... backtrace: [<00000000311a6ef5>] kvasprintf+0x62/0xd0 [<00000000ade94d9f>] kobject_set_name_vargs+0x1c/0x90 [<0000000060657dbb>] kobject_init_and_add+0x5d/0xb0 [<00000000346fe72b>] 0xffffffffa0c5ecba [<000000006cfc5819>] 0xffffffffa0c866b9 [<0000000031c65580>] 0xffffffffa0c38e87 [<00000000e9739b3f>] local_pci_probe+0x41/0x80 [<000000006c69911d>] work_for_cpu_fn+0x16/0x20 [<00000000601267b5>] process_one_work+0x171/0x380 [<0000000049a0eefa>] worker_thread+0x1d1/0x3f0 [<00000000909cf2b9>] kthread+0xf8/0x130 [<0000000058f5f874>] ret_from_fork+0x35/0x40 This patch fixes the issue by: - Releasing dd->per_sdma[i].kobject in hfi1_unregister_sysfs(). - This will fix the memory leak. - Calling kobject_put() to unwind operations only for those entries in dd->per_sdma[] whose operations have succeeded (including the current one that has just failed) in hfi1_verbs_register_sysfs().

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.
