From e7bf90e5afe3aa1d1282c1635a49e17a32c4ecec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wenwen Wang Date: Thu, 11 Jul 2019 14:22:02 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] block/bio-integrity: fix a memory leak bug In bio_integrity_prep(), a kernel buffer is allocated through kmalloc() to hold integrity metadata. Later on, the buffer will be attached to the bio structure through bio_integrity_add_page(), which returns the number of bytes of integrity metadata attached. Due to unexpected situations, bio_integrity_add_page() may return 0. As a result, bio_integrity_prep() needs to be terminated with 'false' returned to indicate this error. However, the allocated kernel buffer is not freed on this execution path, leading to a memory leak. To fix this issue, free the allocated buffer before returning from bio_integrity_prep().
