[ Upstream commit 5b1374b3b3c2fc4f63a398adfa446fb8eff791a4 ]
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 ...
