Subject: [PATCH] lib/test_kmod: Potential double free in error handling
Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2019 17:00:11 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190121140011.GA14283@kadam> (raw)

There is a copy and paste bug so we set "config->test_driver" to NULL
twice instead of setting "config->test_fs".  Smatch complains that it
leads to a double free:

lib/test_kmod.c:840 __kmod_config_init() warn: 'config->test_fs' double freed

Fixes: d9c6a72d6fa2 ("kmod: add test driver to stress test the module loader")
