Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: ipv6: fix afinfo->route refcnt leak on error
Date: Tue, 6 Sep 2011 20:59:11 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1315335551-1659-1-git-send-email-fw@strlen.de> (raw)
Several callers (conntrack_h323, xt_addrtype) assume that the
returned **dst only needs to be released if the function returns 0.
Instead of changing the callers, fix the ipv6 implementation
to behave like the ipv4 version by only providing *dst result
in the success case.
