perf callchain: Fix stitch LBR memory leaks
The 'struct callchain_cursor_node' has a 'struct map_symbol' whose maps and map members are reference counted. Ensure these values use a _get routine to increment the reference counts and use map_symbol__exit() to release the reference counts. Do similar for 'struct thread's prev_lbr_cursor, but save the size of the prev_lbr_cursor array so that it may be iterated. Ensure that when stitch_nodes are placed on the free list the map_symbols are exited. Fix resolve_lbr_callchain_sample() by replacing list_replace_init() to list_splice_init(), so the whole list is moved and nodes aren't leaked. A reproduction of the memory leaks is possible with a leak sanitizer build in the perf report command of: ``` $ perf record -e cycles --call-graph lbr perf test -w thloop $ perf report --stitch-lbr ``` Reviewed-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Fixes: ff165628d72644e3 ("perf callchain: Stitch LBR call stack") Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> [ Basic tests after applying the patch, repeating the example above ] Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Anne Macedo <retpolanne@posteo.net> Cc: Changbin Du <changbin.du@huawei.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240808054644.1286065-1-irogers@google.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
