From 29bf7e93baa3d53e1773f2cfdade8706da2bde51 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Darek Stojaczyk Date: Fri, 23 Nov 2018 15:11:07 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] eal: fix devargs leak on multi-process detach request Device detach triggered through IPC leaked some memory. It allocated a devargs objects just to use it for parsing the devargs string in order to retrieve the device name. Those devargs weren't passed anywhere and were never freed. First of all, let's put those devargs on the stack, so they doesn't need to be freed. Then free the additional arguments string as soon as it's allocated, because we won't need it.
