Subject: [PATCH v2.6.34.y 02/28] ext4: fix memory leaks in error path handling of ext4_ext_zeroout()
Date: Tue,  1 Jun 2010 12:12:49 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1275408795-17487-2-git-send-email-tytso@mit.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1275408795-17487-1-git-send-email-tytso@mit.edu>

From: Jing Zhang <zj.barak@gmail.com>

commit b720303df7352d4a7a1f61e467e0a124913c0d41 upstream (as of v2.6.34-git13)

When EIO occurs after bio is submitted, there is no memory free
operation for bio, which results in memory leakage. And there is also
no check against bio_alloc() for bio.
