Subject: Fix: lttng-sessiond: event_context might leak
X-Git-Url: https://git.efficios.com/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=129d59f5a8860d15bef3ed5a59c88e13912a5367;p=deliverable%2Flttng-tools.git

Fix: lttng-sessiond: event_context might leak

If the parsing completed but is not the expected size, the
*out_event_context object leaks.

Reported by Coverity:

    CID 1475821 (#1 of 1): Resource leak (RESOURCE_LEAK)
    Variable event_context going out of scope leaks the storage it points to.
