It leaks memory, by only running an emalloc without a free:
/* {{{ proto void leak(int num_bytes=3)
Cause an intentional memory leak, for testing/debugging purposes */
ZEND_FUNCTION(leak)
{
int leakbytes=3;
zval **leak;
if (ZEND_NUM_ARGS()>=1) {
if (zend_get_parameters_ex(1, &leak)==SUCCESS) {
convert_to_long_ex(leak);
leakbytes = (*leak)->value.lval;
}
}
emalloc(leakbytes);
}
/* }}} */
