Subject: [PATCH 17/20] perf trace: free syscall tp fields in evsel->priv
Date: Thu, 15 Jul 2021 18:07:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <46526611904ec5ff2768b59014e3afce8e0197d1.1626343282.git.rickyman7@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1626343282.git.rickyman7@gmail.com>

ASan reports several memory leaks running the perf test
"88: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname".
The third of these leaks is related to evsel->priv fields of sycalls never
being deallocated.

This patch adds the function evlist__free_syscall_tp_fields which
iterates over all evsels in evlist, matching syscalls, and calling the
missing frees.
This new function is called at the end of trace__run, right before
calling evlist__delete.
