Same remark as for the first patch in this series, are you Maks? If no, 
we need your Signed-off-by too.

Shouldn't we close the file descriptor too?

Looking at the code a bit more, it seems like we should be closing the 
file descriptor in other error code paths as well.

I would recommend to go for a goto: instead.

e.g.:

diff --git a/tools/zynqmpbif.c b/tools/zynqmpbif.c
index 82ce0ac1a52..0b82f349758 100644
--- a/tools/zynqmpbif.c

+		if (r < 0) {
+			free(buf);
+			buf = NULL;
+			goto out:
+		}
  		len += r;
  		bufp += r;
  	}

+out:
  	close(fd);

  	return buf;


Then, another patch on top of that, which closes the file descriptor for

Fixing a different issue, please in a separate patch.

It seems very wrong to me to close a file descriptor in another function 
that opened it, is this really something we want to be doing? I know we 
already are doing it, (a few lines after that, close(fd) is called), but 
should we "fix" it this way?

Cheers,
Quentin

We don't really like empty commit logs, could you please provide some 
information on what this fixes and how?

e.g. here you could say something along the lines of:

line gets realloc'ed in getline() so we need to free it.

The change seems fine to me though.

We have a handful of other error code paths after that that would need 
to free region_prop as well.

value is likely not freed "enough" as well, please check.

Same for region.

I would suggest possibly something like:

This seems to differ from the sender. Are you Maks? If not, you need to 
add your Signed-off-by to fulfill the DCO requirements.

This one too can do a null-deref.

And same for some other functions after as well.

Wondering if we shouldn't update the macros to not enter the for loops 
if sym is NULL? So we don't have to patch every caller?

Quentin

The feedback I had with the original patches here was to bring this up
with the linux kernel community first as this comes from them (and
there's a much wider security-focused set or reviewers there). We can
then easily backport fixes.

[PATCH] tools: Fix potential memory leak in aisimage.c

[ant.v.moryakov]

From: Maks Mishin <maks.mishinFZ@gmail.com>

The 'line' variable is dynamically allocated by getline() function
during config file parsing but wasn't being freed before function
exit, causing memory leak. This was detected by static analysis.

Add missing free() call before closing the file descriptor to
prevent memory leak.
