[PATCH 16/20] perf trace: free syscall->arg_fmt

From: Riccardo Mancini <hidden>
Date: 2021-07-15 16:08:09
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: performance events subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Peter Zijlstra, Ingo Molnar, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Namhyung Kim, Linus Torvalds

ASan reports several memory leaks running the perf test
"88: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname".
The second of these leaks is caused by the arg_fmt field of syscall not
being deallocated.

This patch adds a new function syscall__exit which is called on all
syscalls.table entries in trace__exit, which will free the arg_fmt
field.
