Oh, I see what you mean. So those drivers do malloc their softc. snd_hda was (is) the only one that got it via device_get_softc, but still used free(9) on it in the case of attachment failure. -- Andriy Gapon _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
