Subject: [PATCH 2/2] xdiff/xprepare: fix a memory leak
Date: Fri, 4 Mar 2016 23:10:50 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <56DA15FA.1090601@ramsayjones.plus.com> (raw)
The xdl_prepare_env() function may initialise an xdlclassifier_t
data structure via xdl_init_classifier(), which allocates memory
to several fields, for example 'rchash', 'rcrecs' and 'ncha'.
If this function later exits due to the failure of xdl_optimize_ctxs(),
then this xdlclassifier_t structure, and the memory allocated to it,
is not cleaned up.
In order to fix the memory leak, insert a call to xdl_free_classifier()
before returning.
