[PATCH] wifi: mt76: fix potential memory leak in mt76_wmac_probe()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In mt76_wmac_probe(), when the mt76_alloc_device() call succeeds, memory
is allocated for both struct ieee80211_hw and a workqueue. However, on
the error path, the workqueue is not freed. Fix that by calling
mt76_free_device() on the error path.
