Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] perf probe: Fix libdw memory leak
Date: Wed, 16 Oct 2024 16:56:22 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241016235622.52166-3-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241016235622.52166-1-irogers@google.com>
Add missing dwarf_cfi_end to free memory associated with probe_finder
cfi_eh which is allocated and owned via a call to
dwarf_getcfi_elf. Confusingly cfi_dbg shouldn't be freed as its memory
is owned by the passed in debuginfo struct. Add comments to highlight
this.
This addresses leak sanitizer issues seen in:
tools/perf/tests/shell/test_uprobe_from_different_cu.sh
Fixes: 270bde1e76f4 ("perf probe: Search both .eh_frame and .debug_frame sections for probe location")
