[PATCH] libata: Fix a memory leak bug

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

 



In ata_init(), 'ata_force_tbl' is allocated through kcalloc() in
ata_parse_force_param(). However, it is not deallocated if
ata_attach_transport() fails, leading to a memory leak bug. To fix this
issue, free 'ata_force_tbl' before go to the 'err_out' label.
