[PATCH v2 0/4] staging: rtl8712: clean up dynamic memory management

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

 



This driver is fine if memory allocation never fails. However it does not
handle allocation failure well. This can either lead to memory leak, or
unallocated buffers being used.

v2: Add a missing if statement, as noticed by Dan Carpenter

Nam Cao (4):
  Revert "staging: r8712u: Tracking kmemleak false positives."

  staging: rtl8712: check for return value of _r8712_init_xmit_priv()
