Subject: [PATCH 05/14] fbdev: carminefb: fix potential memory leak in alloc_carmine_fb()
Date: Thu, 14 May 2026 13:54:34 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260514-fbdev-v1-5-b3a2474fa720@cse.iitm.ac.in> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260514-fbdev-v1-0-b3a2474fa720@cse.iitm.ac.in>
The memory allocated for modelist in fb_videomode_to_modelist() is not
freed in the subsequent error path.
Fix that by calling fb_destroy_modelist()
Fixes: 2ece5f43b041 ("fbdev: add the carmine FB driver")
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
