[PATCH 3/3] perf bpf: Fix two memory leakages when calling perf_env__insert_bpf_prog_info()
Posted by Zhongqiu Han 1 year, 2 months ago 
If perf_env__insert_bpf_prog_info() returns false due to a duplicate bpf
prog info node insertion, the temporary info_node and info_linear memory
will leak. Add a check to ensure the memory is freed if the function
returns false.

Please add a blank line between declaration and the other statements.
Also I think you can just use the return value of the internal function
instead of initializaing it to true.

Thanks,

Hi Namhyung,
Thanks for your review~

I will add a blank line between the declaration and the other
statements, and optimize it as below:


+bool perf_env__insert_bpf_prog_info(struct perf_env *env,
  				    struct bpf_prog_info_node
*info_node)
  {
+	bool ret;
+
  	down_write(&env->bpf_progs.lock);
-	__perf_env__insert_bpf_prog_info(env, info_node);
+	ret = __perf_env__insert_bpf_prog_info(env, info_node);
  	up_write(&env->bpf_progs.lock);
+	return ret;
  }


>>   	down_write(&env->bpf_progs.lock);
>> -	__perf_env__insert_bpf_prog_info(env, info_node);
>> +	if (!__perf_env__insert_bpf_prog_info(env, info_node))
