perf record: Fix memory leak in vDSO found using ASAN
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
I got several memory leak reports from Asan with a simple command.  It
was because VDSO is not released due to the refcount.  Like in
__dsos_addnew_id(), it should put the refcount after adding to the list.

  $ perf record true
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.030 MB perf.data (10 samples) ]
