Subject: [PATCH 2/2] crypto: nx - fix context leak in nx842_crypto_free_ctx
Date: Wed, 11 Mar 2026 16:56:49 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260311155645.397083-6-thorsten.blum@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260311155645.397083-4-thorsten.blum@linux.dev>
Since the scomp conversion, nx842_crypto_alloc_ctx() allocates the
context separately, but nx842_crypto_free_ctx() never releases it. Add
the missing kfree(ctx) to nx842_crypto_free_ctx(), and reuse
nx842_crypto_free_ctx() in the allocation error path.
Fixes: 980b5705f4e7 ("crypto: nx - Migrate to scomp API")
