[PATCH wireless v2] brcmfmac: fix potential memory leak in brcmf_netdev_start_xmit()

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

 



The brcmf_netdev_start_xmit() returns NETDEV_TX_OK without freeing skb
in case of pskb_expand_head() fails, add dev_kfree_skb() to fix it.
Compile tested only.
