Subject: [PATCH v2 5/6] net/iavf: fix leak of flex metadata extraction field
Date: Fri, 3 Jul 2026 14:19:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260703131921.4102325-6-bruce.richardson@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260703131921.4102325-1-bruce.richardson@intel.com>
Function iavf_init_proto_xtr() allocates vf->proto_xtr as part of the
device init sequence, but no shutdown function frees this memory again.
Add an appropriate free call to fix this memory leak.
Fixes: 12b435bf8f2f ("net/iavf: support flex desc metadata extraction")
