[PATCH 5.5 030/367] ALSA: pcm: Fix memory leak at closing a stream without hw_free

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Feb 10 2020 - 07:43:12 EST


From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit 66f2d19f8116e16898f8d82e28573a384ddc430d upstream.

ALSA PCM core recently introduced a new managed PCM buffer allocation
mode that does allocate / free automatically at hw_params and
hw_free. However, it overlooked the code path directly calling
hw_free PCM ops at releasing the PCM substream, and it may result in a
memory leak as spotted by syzkaller when no buffer preallocation is
used (e.g. vmalloc buffer).

This patch papers over it with a slight refactoring. The hw_free ops
call and relevant tasks are unified in a new helper function, and call
it from both places.
