Instead of perf_config(), This function initialize config set
collecting all configs from config files (i.e. user config
~/.perfconfig and system config $(sysconfdir)/perfconfig).

If there are the same config variable both user and system
config file, user config has higher priority than system config.

So, the usual pattern is: alloc, init, fail? free, return NULL.

I thought you could've been deviating from that pattern and went to look
at perf_config_set__init() to see if that was doing the freeing in case
of failure, which it shouldn't, it isn't, so I guess this is a leak on
failure, no?


You are right. And I found additional problems.

First of all, as you said, if it is failed in perf_config_set__init(),
the config set wouldn't be freed so this is a leak on failure.

Secondly, if it is failed in perf_parse_file(),
perf_parse_file() cannot return because of die()
so perf_config_from_file() and perf_config()
don't also return. I guess this is abnormal termination
without the freeing.
(The important point of this problem is die() at perf_parse_file())

Thirdly, there are problems that are related to collect_config().
If perf_config_from_file(collect_config,..) is failed
the config set will be freed at collect_config() like below.

static int collect_config(const char *var, const char *value,
                          void *perf_config_set)
{

...

out_free:
        free(key);
        perf_config_set__delete(set);
        return -1;
}

And then if calling perf_config_from_file(collect_config,..)
at perf_config_set__init() again,
an error will happen because the config set is NULL at collect_config().
(the error mean NULL pointer exception.)


To conclude,
First of all, I'll send preparatory PATCH set for this patch
to solve the problems i.e.

    1) A problem that perf_config() can't return
       becuase of die() at perf_parse_file()

    2) A problem about the freeing config set at collect_config()

    3) NULL pointer exception at collect_config()

And then I will send changed this patch following above patchset.
(to solve a leak when perf_config_set__init() failed)


Thanks,
Taeung
