Subject: [PATCH nf] netfilter: nf_tables: fix memory leak if expr init fails
Date: Mon, 20 Jun 2016 21:11:45 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1466428305-58285-1-git-send-email-zlpnobody@163.com> (raw)

From: Liping Zhang <liping.zhang@spreadtrum.com>

If expr init fails then we need to free it.

So when the user add a nft rule as follows:
  # nft add rule filter input tcp dport 22 flow table ssh \
    { ip saddr limit rate 0/second }
memory leak will happen.
