From 46bbe5c671e06f070428b9be142cc4ee5cedebac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Rix Date: Mon, 7 Sep 2020 06:58:45 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: fix double free clang static analyzer reports this problem trace_events_hist.c:3824:3: warning: Attempt to free released memory kfree(hist_data->attrs->var_defs.name[i]); In parse_var_defs() if there is a problem allocating var_defs.expr, the earlier var_defs.name is freed. This free is duplicated by free_var_defs() which frees the rest of the list. Because free_var_defs() has to run anyway, remove the second free fom parse_var_defs().
