[PATCH 1/1] tracing/latency_hist Fix memory leak

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

 



The index_ptr memory that is allocated when printout is started
currently is only returned when the printout is stopped
prematurely. It is not returned when the printout regularly
finishes. Fix this memory leak.
