commit 519ce2f933fa14acf69d5c8cabcc18711943d629 upstream. In routine rtl92ee_set_fw_rsvdpagepkt(), the driver allocates an skb, but never calls rtl_cmd_send_packet(), which will free the buffer. All other rtlwifi drivers perform this operation correctly. This problem has been in the driver since it was included in the kernel. Fortunately, each firmware load only leaks 4 buffers, which likely explains why it has not previously been detected.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
