Subject: [PATCH] objtool: Fix memory leak in create_static_call_section()
Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2022 18:48:25 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220727154825.3427-1-goriainov@ispras.ru> (raw)

On some paths of function create_static_call_section() the memory,
allocated for key_name via strdup(), is not freed. Even though this
is a utility function, and all memory will be freed automatically
after the process is finished, there is free(key_sym) in some cases,
so it would be sensible to always deallocate the memory.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

Fixes: 1e7e47883830 ("x86/static_call: Add inline static call implementation for x86-64")
