[PATCH 4.7 013/143] virtio: fix memory leak in virtqueue_add()
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 05 2016 - 13:43:49 EST
4.7-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Wei Yongjun <weiyj.lk@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 58625edf9e2515ed41dac2a24fa8004030a87b87 upstream.
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.
