Summary: dlopen(path_to_lib, RTLD_LOCAL|RTLD_NOLOAD) leaks
memory
Product: glibc
Version: 2.13
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: libc
AssignedTo: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
ReportedBy: finkandreas@web.de
Created attachment 5254
--> http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=5254
Unittest (needs path to a library as argument)
calling dlopen(path_to_lib, RTLD_LOCAL|RTLD_NOLOAD) leaks memory. It's not
much, but it contains at least the whole path to the lib (i.e. the longer the
path, the more memory is leaked).
The library must be existent on harddisk, but not loaded yet!
Attached is a unittest, which calls dlopen 100 times, to show, that the leak
accumulates (i.e. with every call more memory is leaked). The attached program
needs one commandline argument, the path to the library.
This is the output of valgrind after running the program:

I've checked in a patch which is an extension of the patch Andreas posted.
