[Beignet] [PATCH 2/2] Fix DRM Memory leak BUG

I have looked into the clWaitForEvents function and read about ocl spec, maybe the uncompleted evnet in the last_event should not be there at all. It should be finished in the waitforevent function and be deleted and  freed in the clReleaseEvent. My patch may cause unexpectable user function behavior for the event's actually finished time is random. I will look into the WaitForEvnets function and make some patches there. Thank you!

Nice catch! But may not be a correct fix.
We don't need to do the blocking event updating all the time.
We only need to do that when there is potential possibility to leak a event. If a event has a user call back function registered is such a case, and my best guessing here is:
one event in the wait list of the last event has user call back function registered and has been missed.

We may need to check all the wait list of the last event before we do a locking event updating here.

Thanks,
Zhigang Gong.
