Subject: [PATCH 02/25] perf stat: Fix use-after-freed pointer detected by the smatch tool
Date: Tue,  9 Jul 2019 15:31:03 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190709183126.30257-3-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190709183126.30257-1-acme@kernel.org>

From: Leo Yan <leo.yan@linaro.org>

Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the use-after-freed
pointer.

  tools/perf/builtin-stat.c:1353
  add_default_attributes() warn: passing freed memory 'str'.

The pointer 'str' has been freed but later it is still passed into the
function parse_events_print_error().  This patch fixes this
use-after-freed issue.
