[PATCH 3.13 070/172] batman-adv: free skb on TVLV parsing success

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

 



3.13-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 05c3c8a636aa9ee35ce13f65afc5b665615cc786 ]

When the TVLV parsing routine succeed the skb is left
untouched thus leading to a memory leak.

Fix this by consuming the skb in case of success.

Introduced by ef26157747d42254453f6b3ac2bd8bd3c53339c3
