[PATCH] mtd: parsers: qcom: Fix leaking of partition name

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

 



Partition name are already allocated and defined by the ptable struct.
Skip reallocation of name variable and directly lowercase the name in
the ptable struct. The name variable was duplicated but never freed.
The leak was found using kmemleak.
