Subject: [PATCH] kexec: fix memory leak in function kimage_normal_alloc
Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2013 12:36:13 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5126F5BD.1030602@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
If kimage_normal_alloc() fails to alloc pages for image->swap_page, it
should call kimage_free_page_list() to free allocated pages in
image->control_pages list before it frees image.
