[PATCH] fix memory leak in rocketport rp_do_receive

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

 



Fix memory leak caused by incorrect use of tty
buffer facility. tty buffers are allocated but never
processed by call to tty_flip_buffer_push so they
accumulate on the full buffer list. Current code
uses the buffers as a temporary storage for data before
passing it directly to the line discipline.
