[patch 02/11] zfcp: Fix mempool pointer for GID_PN request allocation

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

 



From: Christof Schmitt <christof.schmitt@xxxxxxxxxx>

When allocating memory for GID_PN nameserver requests, the allocation
function stores the pointer to the mempool, but then overwrites the
pointer via memset. Later, the wrong function to free the memory will
be called, since this is based on the stored pointer.

Fix this by first initializing the struct and then storing the pointer.
