[PATCH v3 0/3] unpack-trees: memory-leak fixes

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

 



This commit-message-only-change to v2 should address the comments
Elijah had on v2 (see link in the range-diff). I.e. there's probably
bug in adjacent code in leaving a stale lockfile, but I'm punting on
that and just narrowly fixing a memory leak here.

  unpack-trees: don't leak memory in verify_clean_subdirectory()
  sequencer: add a "goto cleanup" to do_reset()
  sequencer: fix a memory leak in do_reset()

    -    There are three earlier "return"'s in this function that I'm not
    -    bothering to covert, those don't need to rollback anything, or free
    -    any resources, so let's leave, even though they could safely "goto
    -    cleanup" as well.
    +    There are three earlier "return"'s in this function which should
    +    probably be made to use this new "cleanup" too, per [1] it looks like
    +    they're leaving behind stale locks. But let's not try to fix every
    +    potential bug here now, I'm just trying to narrowly plug a memory
    +    leak.

    +    This introduces a change in behavior in that we now start calling
    +    clear_unpack_trees_porcelain() even without having called the
    +    setup_unpack_trees_porcelain(). That's OK, that clear function, like
    +    most others, will accept a zero'd out struct.

         This inches us closer to passing various tests in
         "t34*.sh" (e.g. "t3434-rebase-i18n.sh"), but because they have so many
         other memory leaks in revisions.c this doesn't make any test file or
