[nfs-utils PATCH] mountd: Fix memory leak in getexportent

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

 



Valgrind shows that the memory allocated for ee.e_hostname in
getexportent() is being leaked.  While there _is_ a call to xfree(), by
the time it gets called the leak's already happened.  Moving the xfree()
call so that it occurs before the assignment that overwrites ee fixes
this.
