Subject: [PATCH] of: unittest: fix memory leak in attach_node_and_children
Date: Thu, 14 Nov 2019 19:43:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191114184334.2866770-1-erhard_f@mailbox.org> (raw)
In attach_node_and_children memory is allocated for full_name via
kasprintf. If the condition of the 1st if is not met the function
returns early without freeing the memory. Add a kfree() to fix that.
