Subject: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH maint] batman-adv: release vlan object after checking the CRC
Date: Tue, 28 Jan 2014 02:06:47 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1390871207-431-1-git-send-email-antonio@meshcoding.com> (raw)
There is a refcounter unbalance in the CRC checking routine
invoked on OGM reception. A vlan object is retrieved (thus
its refcounter is increased by one) but it is never properly
released. This leads to a memleak because the vlan object
will never be free'd.
Fix this by releasing the vlan object after having read the
CRC.
