[PATCH] hv_netvsc: Fix a memory leak bug

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

 



In rndis_filter_device_add(), 'rndis_device' is allocated through kzalloc()
by invoking get_rndis_device(). In the following execution, if an error
occurs, the execution will go to the 'err_dev_remv' label. However, the
allocated 'rndis_device' is not deallocated, leading to a memory leak bug.
