From: Alan Stern Date: Fri, 14 Oct 2005 15:23:27 +0000 (-0400) Subject: [SCSI] Fix leak of Scsi_Cmnds X-Git-Tag: v2.6.14~31^2~3 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7c72ce81870ded9365f4bc5caa98ef1591dd18dd;p=linux-2.6 [SCSI] Fix leak of Scsi_Cmnds When a request is deferred in scsi_init_io because the sg table could not be allocated, the associated scsi_cmnd is not released and the request is not marked with REQ_DONTPREP. When the command is retried, if scsi_prep_fn decides to kill it then the scsi_cmnd will never be released. This patch (as573) changes scsi_init_io so that it calls scsi_put_command before deferring a request.
