Subject: [PATCH 1/2] tracing: Fix memory leak in create_filter()
Date: Mon, 10 Dec 2018 15:41:27 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181210204233.607013777@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20181210204126.603121253@goodmis.org
From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>
The create_filter() calls create_filter_start() which allocates a
"parse_error" descriptor, but fails to call create_filter_finish() that
frees it.
The op_stack and inverts in predicate_parse() were also not freed.
Found by kmemleak detector.
