Subject: [PATCH] spapr_pci: fix leak in spapr_phb_vfio_get_loc_code
Date: Mon,  5 Sep 2022 12:17:57 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220905101757.19885-1-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)

Overwriting "path" in the second call to g_strdup_printf() causes a memory leak,
even if the variable itself is g_autofree.

Reported by Coverity as CID 1460454.
