From 962a991c5de18452d6c429d99f3039387cf5cbb0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bharath Vedartham Date: Thu, 23 May 2019 01:15:19 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] 9p/cache.c: Fix memory leak in v9fs_cache_session_get_cookie v9fs_cache_session_get_cookie assigns a random cachetag to v9ses->cachetag, if the cachetag is not assigned previously. v9fs_random_cachetag allocates memory to v9ses->cachetag with kmalloc and uses scnprintf to fill it up with a cachetag. But if scnprintf fails, v9ses->cachetag is not freed in the current code causing a memory leak. Fix this by freeing v9ses->cachetag it v9fs_random_cachetag fails.
