Package: libhdf5-serial-1.8.7 Severity: wishlist Hello:
Since a while I have noticed via valgrind some memory leaks let by the function `H5Zfilter_avail': the following Code reproduce the issue: --8><--------------------------------------------------- // gcc -o test_H5Zfilter_avail test_H5Zfilter_avail.c -lhdf5 // valgrind --leak-check=yes --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes ./test_H5Zfilter_avail // #include <stdio.h> #include <hdf5.h> // http://wiki.hdfgroup.org #ifndef H5Z_BZIP2 #define H5Z_BZIP2 307 #endif int main(int nargs, char *args[]) { fprintf(stderr, "filter with identifier `%d' is %s registered\n", H5Z_BZIP2, (H5Zfilter_avail(H5Z_BZIP2))?"already":"not" ); return (0); } --><8----------------------------------------------------- A closer look shows that the memory leakes are let by the threadsafe machinery. hth, Jerome -- System Information: Debian Release: Wheezy* APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-amd64-mbp62 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
