Subject: [PATCH v2] staging: rtl8712: fix potential memory leak in _r8712_init_xmit_priv()
Date: Wed, 6 Apr 2022 11:52:21 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <tencent_7EE382C22FDC47C9F4FF01E490B93C178C05@qq.com> (raw)
From: Xiaoke Wang <xkernel.wang@foxmail.com>
In _r8712_init_xmit_priv(), if `pxmitbuf->pallocated_buf` is allocated in
failure or `r8712_xmit_resource_alloc(padapter, pxmitbuf)` fails, then it
just returns -ENOMEM but not releases the previous allocated resources,
which leads to various memory leaks.
To fix the memory leaks, this patch unifies the error handler in
_r8712_init_xmit_priv().
Note that if `r8712_xmit_resource_alloc(padapter, pxmitbuf)` fails, we
should call `kfree(pxmitbuf->pallocated_buf);` before goto the error
section so that we do not need to concern the failed item.
