When freeing indexed arrays, the corresponding free function should be called for each entry of the indexed array. For example, for for 'struct tc_act_attrs' 'tc_act_attrs_free(...)' needs to be called for each entry. Previously, memory leaks were reported when enabling the ASAN analyzer. ================================================================= ==874==ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks Direct leak of 24 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from: #0 0x7f221fd20cb5 in malloc ./debug/gcc/gcc/libsanitizer/asan/asan_malloc_linux.cpp:67 #1 0x55c98db048af in tc_act_attrs_set_options_vlan_parms ../generated/tc-user.h:2813 #2 0x55c98db048af in main ./linux/tools/net/ynl/samples/tc-filter-add.c:71 Direct leak of 24 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from: #0 0x7f221fd20cb5 in malloc ./debug/gcc/gcc/libsanitizer/asan/asan_malloc_linux.cpp:67 #1 0x55c98db04a93 in tc_act_attrs_set_options_vlan_parms ../generated/tc-user.h:2813 #2 0x55c98db04a93 in main ./linux/tools/net/ynl/samples/tc-filter-add.c:74 Direct leak of 10 byte(s) in 2 object(s) allocated from: #0 0x7f221fd20cb5 in malloc ./debug/gcc/gcc/libsanitizer/asan/asan_malloc_linux.cpp:67 #1 0x55c98db0527d in tc_act_attrs_set_kind ../generated/tc-user.h:1622 SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: 58 byte(s) leaked in 4 allocation(s).
