Subject: [PATCH V2] selinux: fix memory leak in sel_make_bools
From: Xiaotian Feng <dfeng@redhat.com>
Date: 08/13/2009 10:02 PM
In sel_make_bools, kernel allocates memory for bool_pending_names[i]
with security_get_bools. So if we just free bool_pending_names, those
memories for bool_pending_names[i] will be leaked.
This patch resolves dozens of following kmemleak report after resuming
from suspend:
unreferenced object 0xffff88022e4c7380 (size 32):
comm "init", pid 1, jiffies 4294677173

Not sure what happened to that -- I pushed it to Linus, but it's not in
the tree for some reason. Now applied to

This patch is missing or dropped? I'm not seeing this patch until
2.6.33-rc7, thanks.

memories for bool_pending_names[i] will be leaked.
