From 58625edf9e2515ed41dac2a24fa8004030a87b87 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wei Yongjun Date: Tue, 2 Aug 2016 14:16:31 +0000 Subject: virtio: fix memory leak in virtqueue_add() When using the indirect buffers feature, 'desc' is allocated in virtqueue_add() but isn't freed before leaving on a ring full error, causing a memory leak. For example, it seems rather clear that this can trigger with virtio net if mergeable buffers are not used. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Wei Yongjun Signed-off-by: Michael S.
