[PATCH 3.16 220/346] qdisc: fix a module refcount leak in qdisc_create_dflt()

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

 



3.16.39-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 166ee5b87866de07a3e56c1b757f2b5cabba72a5 upstream.

Should qdisc_alloc() fail, we must release the module refcount
we got right before.

Fixes: 6da7c8fcbcbd ("qdisc: allow setting default queuing discipline")
