From 9a1875e60e61b563737d8d1fc3876b279710fe93 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "David S. Miller" Date: Sat, 1 Apr 2006 12:48:36 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [NET]: Fully fix the memory leaks in sys_accept(). Andi Kleen was right, fput() on sock->file will end up calling sock_release() if necessary. So here is the rest of his version of the fix for these leaks. Signed-off-by: David S.
