perf report: Fix a memory leak for perf_env on AMD
The env.pmu_mapping can be leaked when it reads data from a pipe on AMD. For a pipe data, it reads the header data including pmu_mapping from PERF_RECORD_HEADER_FEATURE runtime. But it's already set in: perf_session__new() __perf_session__new() evlist__init_trace_event_sample_raw() evlist__has_amd_ibs() perf_env__nr_pmu_mappings() Then it'll overwrite that when it processes the HEADER_FEATURE record. Here's a report from address sanitizer. Direct leak of 2689 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from: #0 0x7fed8f814596 in realloc ../../../../src/libsanitizer/lsan/lsan_interceptors.cpp:98 #1 0x5595a7d416b1 in strbuf_grow util/strbuf.c:64 #2 0x5595a7d414ef in strbuf_init util/strbuf.c:25 #3 0x5595a7d0f4b7 in perf_env__read_pmu_mappings util/env.c:362 #4 0x5595a7d12ab7 in perf_env__nr_pmu_mappings util/env.c:517 #5 0x5595a7d89d2f in evlist__has_amd_ibs util/amd-sample-raw.c:315 #6 0x5595a7d87fb2 in evlist__init_trace_event_sample_raw util/sample-raw.c:23 #7 0x5595a7d7f893 in __perf_session__new util/session.c:179 #8 0x5595a7b79572 in perf_session__new util/session.h:115 #9 0x5595a7b7e9dc in cmd_report builtin-report.c:1603 #10 0x5595a7c019eb in run_builtin perf.c:351 #11 0x5595a7c01c92 in handle_internal_command perf.c:404 #12 0x5595a7c01deb in run_argv perf.c:448 #13 0x5595a7c02134 in main perf.c:556 #14 0x7fed85833d67 in __libc_start_call_main ../sysdeps/nptl/libc_start_call_main.h:58 Let's free the existing pmu_mapping data if any.
