Subject: [PATCH 7/8] perf tools: Fix double free in perf_data__close
Date: Tue,  5 Mar 2019 16:25:35 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190305152536.21035-8-jolsa@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190305152536.21035-1-jolsa@kernel.org>

We can't call perf_data__close and subsequently
perf_session__delete, because it will call
perf_data__close again and cause double free
for data->file.path.

  $ perf report -i .
  incompatible file format (rerun with -v to learn more)
  free(): double free detected in tcache 2
  Aborted (core dumped)

In fact we don't need to call perf_data__close
at all, because at the time the got out_close
is reached, session->data is already initialized,
so the perf_data__close call will be triggered
from perf_session__delete.
