[PATCH v2] grep: avoid leak of chartables in PCRE2

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



94da9193a6 ("grep: add support for PCRE v2", 2017-06-01) introduced
a small memory leak visible with valgrind in t7813.

Complete the creation of a PCRE2 specific variable that was missing from
the original change and free the generated table just like it is done
for PCRE1.

The table cleanup use free as there is no global context defined when
it was created (pcre2_maketables is passed a NULL pointer) but if that
gets ever changed will need to be updated in tandem.

V2:
* better document why free is used as suggested by René
* avoid reusing PCRE1 variable for easy of maintenance (per Ævar)
