[PATCH] drivers/md/dm-ioctl.c::target_message(): don't leak 'argv' mem

flat view
STALE5382d

From: Jesper Juhl <hidden>
Date: 2012-01-15 19:36:49
Also in: dm-devel, lkml
Subsystem: device-mapper (lvm), the rest · Maintainers: Alasdair Kergon, Mike Snitzer, Mikulas Patocka, Benjamin Marzinski, Linus Torvalds

If, after allocating memory for 'argv' via dm_split_args(...), we take
the true branch of 'if (!argc)', we'll jump to the 'out:' label and
neglect to free the memory we allocated. We should instead jump to the
'out_argv:' label in that case as far as I can tell.
