[PATCH 3.16 30/83] ALSA: hda - Fix a memory leak bug

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

 



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

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

From: Wenwen Wang <wenwen@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit cfef67f016e4c00a2f423256fc678a6967a9fc09 upstream.

In snd_hda_parse_generic_codec(), 'spec' is allocated through kzalloc().
Then, the pin widgets in 'codec' are parsed. However, if the parsing
process fails, 'spec' is not deallocated, leading to a memory leak.

To fix the above issue, free 'spec' before returning the error.

Fixes: 352f7f914ebb ("ALSA: hda - Merge Realtek parser code to generic parser")
