[PATCH] ALSA: control_led - fix the stack usage (control element ops)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It's a bad idea to allocate big structures on the stack.
Mark the variables as static and add a note for the locking.

Fixes: 22d8de62f11b ("ALSA: control - add generic LED trigger module as the new control layer")
