[PATCH bpf v3 02/15] resolve_btfids: Fix memory leaks reported by ASAN
From: Ihor Solodrai
Date: Fri Feb 20 2026 - 17:27:30 EST
Running resolve_btfids with ASAN reveals memory leaks in btf_id
handling.
- Change get_id() to use a local buffer
- Make btf_id__add() strdup the name internally
- Add btf_id__free_all() that frees all nodese of a tree
- Call the cleanup function on exit for every tree
