[PATCH 1/2] MIPS: module: Ensure we always clean up r_mips_hi16_list

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

 



If we hit an error whilst processing a reloc then we would return early
from apply_relocate & potentially not free entries in r_mips_hi16_list,
thereby leaking memory. Fix this by ensuring that we always run the code
to free r_mipps_hi16_list when errors occur.
