[PATCH v6 0/3] pack-bitmap: fix memory leak if load_bitmap failed

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

 



Since it seems this patch has been inactive for some time, I have revised
the comments according to Taylor's feedback and submitted a new version.

This patch prevents pack-bitmap.c:load_bitmap() from nulling
bitmap_git->bitmap when loading failed. Thus eliminates memory leak. This
patch also add a test case in t5310 which use clang leak sanitizer to detect
whether leak happens when loading failed.

          The solution is to remove the error handling code in load_bitmap(), because
          its caller will always call free_bitmap_index() in case of an error.
