[PATCH 1/2] diff: add an API for deferred freeing

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

 



Add a diff_free() function to free anything we may have allocated in
the "diff_options" struct, and the ability to make calling it a noop
by setting "no_free" in "diff_options".

This is required because when e.g. "git diff" is run we'll allocate
things in that struct, use the diff machinery once, and then exit, but
if we run e.g. "git log -p" we're going to re-use what we allocated
across multiple diff_flush() calls, and only want to free things at
the end.

We've thus ended up with features like the recently added "diff -I"[1]
where we'll leak memory. As it turns out it could have simply used the
pattern established in 6ea57703f6 (log: prepare log/log-tree to reuse
the diffopt.close_file attribute, 2016-06-22).

Manually adding more such flags to things log_tree_commit() every time
we need to allocate something would be tedious.

Let's instead move that fclose() code it to a new diff_free(), in
anticipation of freeing more things in that function in follow-up
commits. I'm renaming the "close_file" struct member to "fclose_file"
for the ease of validating this, we can be certain that these are all
the relevant callsites.

Some functions such as log_tree_commit() need an idiom of optionally
retaining a previous "no_free", as they may either free the memory
themselves, or their caller may do so. I'm keeping that idiom in
log_show_early() even though I don't think it's currently called in
this manner, since it also gets passed an existing "struct rev_info"..

   2020-10-20)
