Lawrence Livermore National Labs recently ran the source code analysis tool Coverity over the e2fsprogs-1.39 source to see if it would identify any significant bugs. The analysis turned up 38 mostly minor issues which are enumerated here with patches. We went through and resolved these issues but would love to see these mostly minor changes reviewed and commited upstream. Thanks, Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@xxxxxxxx>, and Herb Wartens <wartens2@xxxxxxxx> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coverity ID: 24: Resource Leak Handle leaked cbuf due to early returns with a generic failure path.
