From 046625231a0397f1776eb353a4ec9ff142cd2f6b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Thu, 26 Dec 2013 17:41:15 -0300 Subject: perf tools: Introduce zfree For the frequent idiom of: free(ptr); ptr = NULL; Make it expect a pointer to the pointer being freed, so that it becomes clear at first sight that the variable being freed is being modified.
