Subject: [PATCH] openvswitch: Fix memory leak in ovs_vport_alloc() error path
Date: Tue, 12 Aug 2014 09:27:57 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1407828477-10287-1-git-send-email-cj@linux.com> (raw)
ovs_vport_alloc() bails out without freeing the memory 'vport' points to.
Picked up by Coverity - CID 1230503.
Fixes: 5cd667b0a4 ("openvswitch: Allow each vport to have an array of 'port_id's.")
