This isn't returning -ENOMEM like when zalloc() fails above. Also you're
mixing 'return -1' with 'return -ENOMEM', please be consistent. Please
find some -E errno for the !sysfs case, perhaps -ENODEV?


For opendir() error, can we just return -errno?

dir = opendir(path);
if (!dir)
return -errno;

+ pmu->name = strdup(dent->d_name);
+ if (!pmu->name)
+ goto mem_err;
+
+ list_add_tail(&pmu->list, &pmu_alias_name_list);
+ continue;


Don't we have a 'struct pmu' constructor/destructor pair? I.e. instead
of doing all this in an open coded way as above, why not have:

void pmu__delete(struct pmu *pmu)
{
if (!pmu)
return;

zfree(&pmu->name);
zfree(&pmu->alias);
free(pmu);
}

struct pmu *pmu__new(const char *name, const char *alias)
{
struct pmu *pmu = zalloc(sizeof(*pmu));

if (pmu) {
pmu->name = strdup(name);
if (!pmu->name)
goto out_delete;

pmu->alias = strdup(alias);
if (!pmu->alias)
goto out_delete;
}

return pmu;
out_err:
pmu__delete(pmu);
return NULL;
}

And then just:

pmu = pmu__new(dent->d_name, buf);
if (!pmu)
goto out_closedir;

list_add_tail(&pmu->list, &pmu_alias_name_list);

And then you don't need the 'continue', as this is the end of the loop
block.

That 'ret' probably should start with -ENOMEM and you end the function
with:

ret = 0;
out_closedir:
closedir(dir);
return ret;
}

Yes, using 'struct pmu' constructor/destructor is absolutely a good design.

I will follow this approach.



The pmu__delete() should be used in perf's shutdown when running it
using memory leak detectors, when not using it, its ok to just leave it
as is to speed up the shutdown.

- Arnaldo


Yes, agree. I will create a separate patch to implement the 'struct pmu' constructor/destructor.

Thanks
