[PATCH v2 15/18] tools api: Avoid potential double free

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



io__getline will free the line on error but it doesn't clear the out
argument. This may lead to the line being freed twice, like in
tools/perf/util/srcline.c as detected by clang-tidy.
