Subject: memory cleanup after setverdict
Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2003 14:24:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3F8A996A.6020707@kom.auc.dk> (raw)

Hi,

I thought once the set verdict is called, the ipq_packet_msg_t param 
that was holding the packet will be freed by libipq. but I can access it 
after the setverdict is called, and also the data I have copied. For 
example, in  a code like this

ipq_packet_msg_t *m = ipq_get_packet(buf);

ipq_set_verdict(handler, m->packet_id, NF_ACCEPT, 0, NULL);

fwrite ((usnigned int *) (m+1), 1, m->data_len, file);

I expected the third call to fail, but it doesn't. Then when is the 
memory used by the ipq_packet_msg_t parameter freed? Or am I responsible 
for freeing it myself?

Regards,
Oumer
