Subject: [PATCH 4/9] csum-file: provide a function to release checkpoints
Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2026 04:03:19 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260702080319.GD2029434@coredump.intra.peff.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260702075234.GA1548258@coredump.intra.peff.net>
A hashfile_checkpoint struct is basically just a copy of the hash_ctx
state at a given point in the file. As such, it contains its own
git_hash_ctx which may (depending on the underlying hash implementation)
need to be discarded when we're done with it.
Let's add a "release" function which cleans up the hash context it
holds. I chose "release" here and not "discard" because you'd use this
to clean up every checkpoint, whether you used it or not. As opposed to
git_hash_discard(), which is needed only if you didn't call
git_hash_final().
There are only two callers which use hashfile_checkpoints, and we can
add release calls to both. When built with "SANITIZE=leak
OPENSSL_SHA1_UNSAFE=1", this makes both t1050 and t9300 leak-free.
