I found three issues during the analysis: 1. Memory leak caused by temp_buf not being freed; 2. Memory leak caused when handling argv; 3. Conditional jump that depended on unitialized values. Issue #1 -------- DESCRIPTION: when mysqlbinlog is reading from a remote location the event temp_buf references the incoming stream (in NET object), which is not freed by mysqlbinlog explicitly. On the other hand, when it is reading local binary log, it points to a temporary buffer that needs to be explicitly freed. For both cases, the temp_buf was not freed by mysqlbinlog, instead was set to 0. This clearly disregards the free required in the second case, thence creating a memory leak. FIX: we make temp_buf to be conditionally freed depending on the value of remote_opt. Found out that similar fix is already in most recent codebases. Issue #2 -------- DESCRIPTION: load_defaults is called by parse_args, and it reads default options from configuration files and put them BEFORE the arguments that are already in argc and argv. This is done resorting to MEM_ROOT. However, parse_args calls handle_options immediately after which changes argv. Later when freeing the defaults, pointers to MEM_ROOT won't match, causing the memory not to be freed: void free_defaults(char **argv) { MEM_ROOT ptr memcpy_fixed((char*) &ptr,(char *) argv - sizeof(ptr), sizeof(ptr)); free_root(&ptr,MYF(0)); } FIX: we remove load_defaults from parse_args and call it before. Then we save argv with defaults in defaults_argv BEFORE calling parse_args (which inside can then call handle_options at will). Actually, found out that this is in fact kind of a backport for BUG#38468 into 5.1, so I merged in the test case as well and added error check for load_defaults call. Fix based on: revid:zhenxing.he@sun.com-20091002081840-uv26f0flw4uvo33y Issue #3 -------- DESCRIPTION: the structure st_print_event_info constructor would not initialize the sql_mode member, although it did for sql_mode_inited (set to false). This would later raise the warning in valgrind when printing the sql_mode in the event header, as this print out is protected by a check against sql_mode_inited and sql_mode variables. Given that sql_mode was not initialized valgrind would output the warning. FIX: we add initialization of sql_mode to the st_print_event_info constructor. |
