From 0147ebcf8927f09e1923114092f6b14c1de75a95 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Colin Ian King Date: Wed, 1 Jun 2016 19:06:36 +0100 Subject: IB/core: fix null pointer deref and mem leak in error handling The current error handling in setup_hw_stats has a couple of issues. It is possible to generate a null pointer deference on the kfree of hsag->attrs[i] because two of the early error exit paths jump to the kfree when hsags NULL and not allocated. Fix this by moving the kfree on stats and jumping to that, avoiding the hsag freeing. Secondly, there is a memory leak of stats if the hsag allocation fails; instead of returning, jump to the kfree on stats.
