It would be a major change in coding style though. What > do you think? So, I haven't really looked into the cleanup attribute. How would it work here? We only want to free the path if we didn't store it. We can't free it if it got stored. Can you disable the cleanup? If we have to make the cleanup function check if the path got stored, that seems like more work than simply using the multiple goto labels like we do now. -Ben > > Regards, > Martin > > > > diff --git a/libmultipath/dmparser.c b/libmultipath/dmparser.c > > index b9858fa5..8a0501ba 100644 > > --- a/libmultipath/dmparser.c > > +++ b/libmultipath/dmparser.c > > @@ -143,6 +143,7 @@ int disassemble_map(const struct _vector > > *pathvec, > > int def_minio = 0; > > struct path * pp; > > struct pathgroup * pgp; > > + int pp_alloc_flag = 0; > > > > assert(pathvec != NULL); > > p = params; > > @@ -292,6 +293,7 @@ int disassemble_map(const struct _vector > > *pathvec, > > > > for (j = 0; j < num_paths; j++) { > > pp = NULL; > > + pp_alloc_flag = 0; > > p += get_word(p, &word); > > > > if (!word) > > @@ -304,13 +306,16 @@ int disassemble_map(const struct _vector > > *pathvec, > > > > if (!pp) > > goto out1; > > - > > + pp_alloc_flag = 1; > > strlcpy(pp->dev_t, word, BLK_DEV_SIZE); > > } > > FREE(word); > > > > - if (store_path(pgp->paths, pp)) > > + if (store_path(pgp->paths, pp)) { > > + if (pp_alloc_flag) > > + free_path(pp); > > goto out; > > + } > > > > pgp->id ^= (long)pp; > > pp->pgindex = i + 1; > -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
