[PATCH] locks: fix a memory leak bug

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

 



In __break_lease(), the file lock 'new_fl' is allocated in lease_alloc().
However, it is not deallocated in the following execution if
smp_load_acquire() fails, leading to a memory leak bug. To fix this issue,
free 'new_fl' before returning the error.
