Subject: Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 3/3] lpm: fix missing free of lpm
Date: Wed, 16 Mar 2016 14:34:28 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAATJJ0LqPQ2Vby_JzB-cKmtxmxk4kK+6vUzCHbyDpK754rQmaA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <56E95C29.1060600@6wind.com>

Hi,
looking at it I think we have intersections but also parts of yours that I
missed.
More than that while applying your changes I found other potential
use-after free cases.

I'll wrap that all up together in a v3 of my series.
