[patch 1/5] zfcp: fix kfree handling in zfcp_init_device_setup

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

 



From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx>

The pointer that is allocated with kmalloc() is passed to strsep()
which modifies it. Later on the modified pointer value will be passed
to kfree. Save the original pointer and pass that one to kfree
instead.
