[PATCH 01/42] sysfs: Don't leak secdata when a sysfs_dirent is freed.

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

 



While refreshing my sysfs patches I noticed a leak in the secdata
implementation.  We don't free the secdata when we free the
sysfs dirent. 

This is a bug in 2.6.32-rc5 that we really should close.
