13464 - MLK: -(8193 bytes in xpidl according to insure++lite under RH6.0 Linux

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: XPCOM, defect, P3)

Description

[cls]

There were no insure messages when compiling xpidl and the libs it uses but
everytime it runs, it prints out this message:

**LEAK_FREE**

  Memory leaked freeing block: p

  Lost block : 0x080cf528 thru 0x080d1528 (8193 bytes)
               p, allocated at:
                    xpidl_malloc()
         new_input_callback_data()
                   NextIsInclude()
                  input_callback()
                    ** routines not compiled with insure **
               xpidl_process_idl()
                            main()

  Stack trace where the error occurred:
                  input_callback()
                    ** routines not compiled with insure **
               xpidl_process_idl()
                            main()

That was the first time xpidl was run. Strangely enough, most of the subsequent
runs leak at the same address although it may be coincidental.
Lost block : 0x080d3528 thru 0x080d5528 (8193 bytes)

Near stock RH 6.0 config: glibc 2.1.1-6, egcs-1.1.2-12, binutils-2.9.1.0.25,
2.2.12 kernel.

Putting on [PP] list.

Comment 2

Believed to be on all platforms.  Removing [PP]

Comment 3

[Mike McCabe]

Mass accept as ASSIGNED of xpidl bugs

Comment 4

[Mike McCabe]

Fixed.  I've redone the buffer management, and I think everything gets freed
now.
