[PATCH] rtlwifi: fix memory leak in rtl_usb_probe

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

 



In rtl_usb_probe, a new hw is allocated via ieee80211_alloc_hw(). This
allocation should be released in case of allocation failure for
rtlpriv->usb_data.

Fixes: a7959c1394d4 ("rtlwifi: Preallocate USB read buffers and eliminate kalloc in read routine")
