Subject: [PATCH v3 5/5] net/bnxt: fix VF info alloc error path memory leak
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2026 18:24:24 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260929002424.1208457-6-Mohammad-Shuab.Siddique@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260929002424.1208457-1-Mohammad-Shuab.Siddique@broadcom.com>
From: Joseph Wong <joseph.wong@broadcom.com>
In bnxt_alloc_vf_info(), vf_info pointer needs to be assigned prior to
the nested allocation operations. If an error occurs during the nested
allocations, the cleanup function bnxt_free_vf_info() needs the vf_info
pointer to correctly free the resources.
Fixes: 01406837bf49 ("net/bnxt: fix VF info allocation")
