[PATCH 1/8] tracing: tprobe-events: Fix a memory leak when tprobe with $retval

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

 



From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

Fix a memory leak when a tprobe is defined with $retval. This
combination is not allowed, but the parse_symbol_and_return() does
not free the *symbol which should not be used if it returns the error.
Thus, it leaks the *symbol memory in that error path.

Fixes: ce51e6153f77 ("tracing: fprobe-event: Fix to check tracepoint event and return")
