The commit665ac7e927("acpi/hmat: Register processor domain to its memory") introduced some memory leaks below due to it fails to release the heap memory in an error path, and then those statically-allocated __initdata memory which reference them get freed during boot renders those heap memory as leaks. Since it is valid to pass NULL to acpi_put_table(), it is fine to call it even if acpi_get_table() returns an error. unreferenced object 0xc8ff8008349e9400 (size 128): comm "swapper/0", pid 1, jiffies 4294709236 (age 48121.476s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 d0 9e 34 08 80 ff 84 d8 00 43 11 00 10 ff ff ...4......C..... 00 00 00 00 ff ff ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<00000000869d4503>] __kmalloc+0x568/0x600 [<0000000070fd6afb>] alloc_memory_target+0x50/0xd8 [<00000000efa2081e>] srat_parse_mem_affinity+0x58/0x5c [<000000008bfaef74>] acpi_parse_entries_array+0x1c8/0x2c0 [<0000000022804877>] acpi_table_parse_entries_array+0x11c/0x138 [<00000000ffe9cd34>] acpi_table_parse_entries+0x7c/0xac [<00000000a7023afd>] hmat_init+0x90/0x174 [<00000000694a86c1>] do_one_initcall+0x2d8/0x5f8 [<0000000024889da9>] do_initcall_level+0x37c/0x3fc [<000000009be02908>] do_basic_setup+0x38/0x50 [<0000000037b3ac0a>] kernel_init_freeable+0x194/0x258 [<00000000f5741184>] kernel_init+0x18/0x334 [<000000007b30f423>] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x18 [<000000006c7147a8>] 0xffffffffffffffff Signed-off-by: Qian Cai <cai@lca.pw> Fixes:665ac7e927("acpi/hmat: Register processor domain to its memory") Acked-by: Rafael J.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
