From: Ian Rogers <irogers@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit d9fc706108c15f8bc2d4ccccf8e50f74830fabd9 ] perf_tip() may allocate memory or use a literal, this means memory wasn't freed if allocated. Change the API so that literals aren't used. At the same time add missing frees for system_path. These issues were spotted using leak sanitizer.
