From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> The following crashes: # trace-cmd record -C local -e sched -B foo -e irq sleep 1 # trace-cmd report The issue is that new instances are copied from the top instance descriptor and their values are set. This means that the trace_clock field is also copied which is a pointer to a string. On freeing of the tracecmd_input handlers, the trace_clock is freed. This is an issue if the trace_clock was added as an option, because the instance just has a copy of the top instance, and when the instance descriptor is freed, it will free the same pointer that was already freed by the descruction of the top instance descriptor and we have a double free. Have the creation of the instance tracecmd_input handler descriptor perform a strdup() and have its own copy of the trace_clock.
