Subject: [PATCH] trace: Avoid memory leak in predicate_parse()
Date: Tue, 28 May 2019 15:46:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190528134659.4041-1-tomasbortoli@gmail.com> (raw)

In case of errors, predicate_parse() goes to the out_free label
to free memory and to return an error code.

However, predicate_parse() does not free the predicates of the
temporary prog_stack array, thence leaking them.
