I wrote a simple program like this to find out the possibility of a
memory leak. The program goes like this.
#include<openssl/ssl.h>
int main()
{
SSL_library_init();
EVP_cleanup();
}
when I run this programm through the valgrind I get the following output.
Ok, it is not clear if tried out the cleanup sequence I posted and
checked for results after using it ?
If you are still getting leaks after; then the function
SSL_free_comp_methods(); might be addressing a genuine leak which can't
be reclaimed using any of the existing cleanup functions.
So I'd vote for it to get more attention and be included.
I'd also like to see a SSL_library_cleanup(), which in turn calls
SSL_free_comp_methods() just to start the ball rolling on reducing the
OpenSSL voodoo.
