[patch added to the 3.12 stable tree] dm log userspace: fix memory leak in dm_ulog_tfr_init failure path

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

 



From: Alexey Khoroshilov <khoroshilov@xxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit 56ec16cb1e1ce46354de8511eef962a417c32c92 upstream.

If cn_add_callback() fails in dm_ulog_tfr_init(), it does not
deallocate prealloced memory but calls cn_del_callback().

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
