Subject: Q: cifs, freeing volume_info->UNCip
Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2011 08:22:17 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7087.1313450537@jrobl> (raw)


Hello,

CIFS cleanup_volume_info_contents() looks like having a memory
corruption problem.
When UNCip is set to "&vol->UNC[2]" in cifs_parse_mount_options(), it
should not be kfree()-ed in cleanup_volume_info_contents().

If it is correct and the code in mainline is not fixed yet, then here is
a patch.
