[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ASoC: rsnd: don't double free kctrl
From: Colin Ian King colin.king@canonical.com
On an error, snd_ctl_add already free's kctrl, so calling snd_ctl_free_one to free it again leads to a double free error. Fix this by removing the extraneous snd_ctl_free_one call.

Indeed... Acked-by: Kuninori Morimoto kuninori.morimoto.gx@renesas.com
If my memory was correct, this code was copied from somewhere...
BTW, in my opinion, function parameter automatically freed in "add" function is a little bit strange behavior for me...

The patch
ASoC: rsnd: don't double free kctrl
has been applied to the asoc tree at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git
All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.
You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.
If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced.
Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail.
Thanks, Mark
