Below is what happens on R-Car H3ULCB-KF using clean U-Boot v2019.04-00810-g6aebc0d11a10 and r8a7795_ulcb_defconfig: => ### interrupt autoboot => gpt guid mmc 1 21200400-0804-0146-9dcc-a8c51255994f success! => ### keep calling 'gpt guid mmc 1' => ### on 59th call, we are out of memory: => gpt guid mmc 1 alloc_read_gpt_entries: ERROR: Can't allocate 0X4000 bytes for GPT Entries GPT: Failed to allocate memory for PTE get_disk_guid: *** ERROR: Invalid GPT *** alloc_read_gpt_entries: ERROR: Can't allocate 0X4000 bytes for GPT Entries GPT: Failed to allocate memory for PTE get_disk_guid: *** ERROR: Invalid Backup GPT *** error! After some inspection, it looks like get_disk_guid(), added via v2017.09 commit73d6d18b71
("GPT: add accessor function for disk GUID"), unlike other callers of is_gpt_valid(), doesn't free the memory pointed out by 'gpt_entry *gpt_pte'. The latter is allocated by is_gpt_valid() via alloc_read_gpt_entries(). With the fix applied, the reproduction scenario has been run hundreds of times ('while true; do gpt guid mmc 1; done') w/o running into OOM. Fixes:73d6d18b71
