Subject: [patch 01/23] cciss: fix memory leak
Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2008 13:39:54 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080222213954.GB8686@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080222213927.GA8686@suse.de>

[-- Attachment #1: cciss-fix-memory-leak.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1254 bytes --]

2.6.22-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@gmail.com>

mainline: f2912a1223c0917a7b4e054f18086209137891ea

There's a memory leak in the cciss driver.

in alloc_cciss_hba() we may leak sizeof(ctlr_info_t) bytes if a
call to alloc_disk(1 << NWD_SHIFT) fails.
This patch should fix the issue.

Spotted by the Coverity checker.
