Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Erwin S. Andreasen (drylock) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: UNIX mmap leaks file descriptors Initial Comment: The commit from 2.49 to 2.50 in Modules/mmapmodule.c has made mmap under UNIX leak a file descriptor: - m_obj->fd = fd; + m_obj->fd = dup(fd); The FD given is dup'ed in order to allow ftruncation later, but no close of it is done in dealloc/close. A test case attached, using lsof after some mmaps/unmaps to show leak.
