Hi All,

I'm running LTP (I'm using ltp-full-20090731....but asap I will upgrade to latest) on SH based platforms. Now, during a test-session. I've noted that the test "mtest01" reduced drastically the system memory and after its execution this memory wasn't de-allocated.

I've analysed the mtest01.c code and I've noted that no "free()" istruction was associated to the related malloc:

......
if((mem = (char*)malloc(chunksize)) == NULL) {
......

I've simply added a "free(mem)" of the allocated memory and the issue was addressed successfully.

I've attached the trivial patch I've developed.

Best Regards,

Added missed "free" istruction to release memory previosuly allocated.
