Subject: [PATCH] fix memory leak in rocketport rp_do_receive
Date: Sun, 18 Jun 2006 16:05:32 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1150664732.2606.2.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
Fix memory leak caused by incorrect use of tty
buffer facility. tty buffers are allocated but never
processed by call to tty_flip_buffer_push so they
accumulate on the full buffer list. Current code
uses the buffers as a temporary storage for data before
passing it directly to the line discipline.
