[PATCH v2] staging: rtl8712: fix potential memory leak in r8712_xmit_resource_alloc()
Posted by xkernel.wang@foxmail.com 4 years, 2 months ago
From: Xiaoke Wang <xkernel.wang@foxmail.com>

In r8712_xmit_resource_alloc(), if usb_alloc_urb() fails, there can be 
some explored items are not released before this function returns.

Therefore, this patch re-explores the allocated items and uses 
usb_free_urb() to release them.

v1->v2 remove kmemleak_not_leak() and update the description.
