Hi Charles,
In the function where Daniel just made the fix for the memory leak (int pv_get_mcd_value()
) , just before existing it with 0 , we added something like the following :
if (mcd_memory) {
pkg_free(return_value);
} else {
free(return_value);
}
It looks like it does not leak anymore, but please-double check if we are free-ing it in
the right place.
Regards,
Dragos

I can take a look this evening. Assuming nobody has already started?

Hello,
there is (still) a memory leak in memcached module, discovered on a report by Dragos
Oancea.

The one related to pkg_str_dup() should be fixed by the commit:
-
http://git.sip-router.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi/sip-router/?a=commit;h=6faf126…
The other one is related to mcd_malloc(), which I guess it is due to the function that
returns the value from memchache, memcached_get() used in pv_get_mcd_value_helper() --
the returned object has to be freed by calling code, according to:
-
http://docs.libmemcached.org/memcached_get.html
Since the libmemcached was initialized with wrappers around pkg malloc/free, I expect the
respective free function has to be used to free the result.
Can any of memcached devs check my commit and investigate further the second leak?
Cheers,
Daniel
