From d496aab567e7e52b3e974c9192a5de6e77dce32c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli Date: Fri, 20 Jan 2012 14:34:04 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] kprobes: initialize before using a hlist Commit ef53d9c5e ("kprobes: improve kretprobe scalability with hashed locking") introduced a bug where we can potentially leak kretprobe_instances since we initialize a hlist head after having used it. Initialize the hlist head before using it.
