Subject: [PATCH net] net: nixge: fix potential memory leak in nixge_start_xmit()
Date: Mon, 14 Nov 2022 16:55:35 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1668416136-33530-1-git-send-email-zhangchangzhong@huawei.com> (raw)

The nixge_start_xmit() returns NETDEV_TX_OK but does not free skb on two
error handling cases, which can lead to memory leak.

To fix this, return NETDEV_TX_BUSY in case of nixge_check_tx_bd_space()
fails and add dev_kfree_skb_any() in case of dma_map_single() fails.

Fixes: 492caffa8a1a ("net: ethernet: nixge: Add support for National Instruments XGE netdev")
