ASan reports a memory leak caused by evlist not being deleted on exit in
perf-report, perf-script and perf-data.
The problem is caused by evlist->session not being deleted, which is
allocated in perf_session__read_header, called in perf_session__new if
perf_data is in read mode.
In case of write mode, the session->evlist is filled by the caller.
This patch solves the problem by calling evlist__delete in
perf_session__delete if perf_data is in read mode.
Changes in v2:
- call evlist__delete from within perf_session__delete
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/
