Only the E_NOT operand and not the E_NOT node itself was freed, due to accidentally returning too early in expr_free(). Outline of leak: switch (e->type) { ... case E_NOT: expr_free(e->left.expr); return; ... } *Never reached, 'e' leaked* free(e); Fix by changing the 'return' to a 'break'. Summary from Valgrind on 'menuconfig' (ARCH=x86) before the fix: LEAK SUMMARY: definitely lost: 44,448 bytes in 1,852 blocks ... Summary after the fix: LEAK SUMMARY: definitely lost: 1,608 bytes in 67 blocks ... Signed-off-by: Ulf Magnusson <ulfalizer@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
