There is always the chance of parts of a tool to be librarized, I think the rule is: allocator -> lifetime -> destructor, explicit. We may want to explicitely disable some big destructor call (or lots of destructors, like symbols + hists, etc) because it may make exit time to be overly long, but at least we'll know what destructors to call when such code gets librarized. - Arnaldo > Most of the functionality has a destructor to clean up memory > allocations. probe code needs to follow suit. > > e.g, from builtin-record.c: > > err = __cmd_record(&record, argc, argv); > > perf_evlist__munmap(evsel_list); > perf_evlist__close(evsel_list); > out_free_fd: > perf_evlist__delete_maps(evsel_list); > out_symbol_exit: > symbol__exit(); > > and __cmd_record ends by cleaning up the session struct. > > David -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
