Subject: [PATCH v4 1/9] perf tools: add parse events handle error
Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2019 11:08:19 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191025180827.191916-2-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191025180827.191916-1-irogers@google.com>

Parse event error handling may overwrite one error string with another
creating memory leaks. Introduce a helper routine that warns about
multiple error messages as well as avoiding the memory leak.

A reproduction of this problem can be seen with:
  perf stat -e c/c/
After this change this produces:
WARNING: multiple event parsing errors
event syntax error: 'c/c/'
                       \___ unknown term

valid terms: event,filter_rem,filter_opc0,edge,filter_isoc,filter_tid,filter_loc,filter_nc,inv,umask,filter_opc1,tid_en,thresh,filter_all_op,filter_not_nm,filter_state,filter_nm,config,config1,config2,name,period,percore
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

 Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]

    -e, --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
