Thanks. These two updates fix two different bugs. One of them is the use-after-free issue introduced by bc3cf17b575a: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/?id=bc3cf17b575a7a97b4af7ddcf86133175da7a582 - ret = snd_soc_of_get_dai_link_codecs(dev, codec, link); + cpu_dai = of_parse_phandle(cpu, "sound-dai", 0); + of_node_put(cpu); + of_node_put(codec); + + ret = snd_soc_of_get_dai_link_codecs(dev, codec, codec_link); if (ret < 0) goto err_put_codec_n; and the other is the double-free issue introduced by d832d2b246c5: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/tree/sound/soc/samsung/odroid.c?id=d832d2b246c516eacb2d0ba53ec17ed59c3cd62b#n318 and n303, n308. So we sent two patches to fix them separately. -- Regards, Wen _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
