From: Stephane Eranian Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 21:21:01 +0000 (+0200) Subject: perf_events: Fix resource leak in x86 __hw_perf_event_init() X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4b24a88b35e15e04bd8f2c5dda65b5dc8ebca05f;p=linux-beck.git perf_events: Fix resource leak in x86 __hw_perf_event_init() If reserve_pmc_hardware() succeeds but reserve_ds_buffers() fails, then we need to release_pmc_hardware. It won't be done by the destroy() callback because we return before setting it in case of error.
