Subject: [U-Boot] ubifs: memory possibly not freed
Date: Fri, 30 Sep 2011 17:42:52 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E85F18C.9060904@ge.com> (raw)

Looking at the function ubifs_finddir in the file fs/ubifs/ubifs.c,
I was wondering if some memory had not been freed before
the function returns.


287 static int ubifs_finddir(struct super_block *sb, char *dirname,
288                          unsigned long root_inum, unsigned long *inum)
289 {
...

299         file = kzalloc(sizeof(struct file), 0);
300         dentry = kzalloc(sizeof(struct dentry), 0);
301         dir = kzalloc(sizeof(struct inode), 0);

....
336                 if ((strncmp(dirname, (char *)dent->name, nm.len) == 
0) &&
337                     (strlen(dirname) == nm.len)) {
338                         *inum = le64_to_cpu(dent->inum);
339                         return 1;
340                 }

Line 339 returns without freeing file, dentry and dir.

Maybe wrong but could somebody check that.
