Subject: [PATCH] unpack_entry: invalidate newly added cache entry in case of error
Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2013 09:29:52 +0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1367288992-14979-1-git-send-email-pclouds@gmail.com> (raw)

In this particular code path, we add "base" to the delta base
cache. Then decide to free it, but we forgot about a dangling pointer
in the cache. Invalidate that entry when we free "base".

Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com>

 Some of my changes triggered a double free fault at "free(base);" in
 t5303. This looks like a correct thing to do, but I may be missing
 something (I'm not even sure how it happened). Please check.
