[PATCH bpf-next v4 2/6] libbpf: Fix memory leak in parse_usdt_arg()

From: Xu Kuohai
Date: Tue Oct 11 2022 - 07:43:44 EST


From: Xu Kuohai <xukuohai@xxxxxxxxxx>

In the arm64 version of parse_usdt_arg(), when sscanf returns 2, reg_name
is allocated but not freed. Fix it.

Fixes: 0f8619929c57 ("libbpf: Usdt aarch64 arg parsing support")
