[PATCH 06/12] perf tools: Free 'printk' string in parse_ftrace_printk()

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Mon Oct 08 2018 - 20:55:12 EST


From: Sanskriti Sharma <sansharm@xxxxxxxxxx>

parse_ftrace_printk() tokenizes and parses a line, calling strdup() each
iteration. Add code to free this temporary format string duplicate.

Fixes the following coverity complaints:

Error: RESOURCE_LEAK (CWE-772):
tools/perf/util/trace-event-parse.c:158: overwrite_var: Overwriting
"printk" in "printk = strdup(fmt + 1)" leaks the storage that "printk"
points to.

tools/perf/util/trace-event-parse.c:162: leaked_storage: Variable
"printk" going out of scope leaks the storage it points to.
