From 19833c40d0415d6fe4340b5b9c46239abbf718f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yang Yingliang Date: Wed, 13 Oct 2021 11:05:32 +0800 Subject: iio: core: fix double free in iio_device_unregister_sysfs() I got the double free report: BUG: KASAN: double-free or invalid-free in kfree+0xce/0x390 iio_device_unregister_sysfs+0x108/0x13b [industrialio] iio_dev_release+0x9e/0x10e [industrialio] device_release+0xa5/0x240 If __iio_device_register() fails, iio_dev_opaque->groups will be freed in error path in iio_device_unregister_sysfs(), then iio_dev_release() will call iio_device_unregister_sysfs() again, it causes double free. Set iio_dev_opaque->groups to NULL when it's freed to fix this double free. Not this is a local work around for a more general mess around life time management that will get cleaned up and should make this handling unnecesarry.
