From a0fd4345f928d72a56e27b23e4cd28c94bf36be5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julia Lawall Date: Fri, 2 Apr 2010 14:47:59 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: echoaudio - Eliminate use after free Use the call to snd_card_free in the error handling code at the end of the function, as in the other error cases. A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @@ expression E,E2; @@ snd_card_free(E) ...
