I apologize if this shows up more than once. I've been having problems sending emails out, all day.
First I encountered this with valgrind but then I decided to have openssl print the leaks and it was also confirmed. I have reduced my code to the following two lines. Prior to this if course initilization of openssl and then the cleanup. Either there's a call that I'm missing or the the dynamic locks don't get cleaned up upon exit. Looking at the code in cryptlib.c, i don't see anywhere freeing up the memory allocated to the following stacks: static STACK_OF(OPENSSL_STRING) *app_locks=NULL; static STACK_OF(CRYPTO_dynlock) *dyn_locks=NULL; And here's my sample code: int l = CRYPTO_get_new_dynlockid(); CRYPTO_destroy_dynlockid(l); Before this I have a bunch of lines like: CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init(); CRYPTO_set_mem_debug_options(V_CRYPTO_MDEBUG_ALL); CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(CRYPTO_MEM_CHECK_ON); SSL_library_init(); OpenSSL_add_all_digests(); CRYPTO_set_id_callback(..); CRYPTO_set_locking_callback(...); CRYPTO_set_dynlock_create_callback(...); CRYPTO_set_dynlock_lock_callback(...); CRYPTO_set_dynlock_destroy_callback(...); And at the end of the code I have something like: CRYPTO_set_id_callback(NULL); CRYPTO_set_locking_callback(NULL); CRYPTO_set_dynlock_create_callback(NULL); CRYPTO_set_dynlock_lock_callback(NULL); CRYPTO_set_dynlock_destroy_callback(NULL); ENGINE_cleanup(); EVP_cleanup(); CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(); ERR_free_strings(); OBJ_NAME_cleanup(-1); ERR_remove_thread_state(NULL); SSL_free_comp_methods(); CRYPTO_mem_leaks_fp(stderr); As you can see I have included every cleanup call I could find. Running the code produces the following output: [19:49:10] 188 file=stack.c, line=125, thread=19596, number=20, address=08DF0E50 [19:49:10] 189 file=stack.c, line=127, thread=19596, number=16, address=08DF0F78 36 bytes leaked in 2 chunks ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
