Re: [U-Boot] [u-boot] [PATCH] [2/2] mxc_fec: put freed pointers to NULL to avoid problems with further free() calls.

Dear javier Martin,

In message eedb5540910190519l4551493eoc595ca39f0335cb2@mail.gmail.com you wrote:

If a free() call is used on an already freed pointer we run into stability problems.

Is this actually the case anywhere in the code? If so, that code should be fixed, as thisis obviously a bug then.

I dislike workarounds like these as they just hush up design and/or implementation issues int he code. lease rather fix the real problems instead.

Thanks.

Tested on i.MX27 Litekit board with eldk-2.0 toolchain.

ELDK 2.0? Wow. I did not think this was still in use anywhere around.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
