This fixes error handling for the switch statement case SCTP_CMD_SEND_PKT by making the error value of the call to sctp_packet_transmit equal the variable error due to this function being able to fail with a error code. In addition allow the call to sctp_ootb_pkt_free afterwards to free up the no longer in use sctp packet even if the call to the function sctp_packet_transmit fails in order to avoid a memory leak here for not freeing the sctp Signed-off-by: Bastien Philbert <bastienphilbert@xxxxxxxxx> --- net/sctp/sm_sideeffect.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/net/sctp/sm_sideeffect.c b/net/sctp/sm_sideeffect.c index 7fe56d0..f3a8b58 100644 --- a/net/sctp/sm_sideeffect.c +++ b/net/sctp/sm_sideeffect.c @@ -1434,7 +1434,7 @@ static int sctp_cmd_interpreter(sctp_event_t event_type, case SCTP_CMD_SEND_PKT: /* Send a full packet to our peer. */ packet = cmd->obj.packet; - sctp_packet_transmit(packet, gfp); + error = sctp_packet_transmit(packet, gfp); sctp_ootb_pkt_free(packet); break; -- 2.5.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sctp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
