From 599dc766e89fe4f964c197f8d109dfc2e3c890ba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Ren=C3=A9=20Scharfe?= Date: Tue, 19 May 2015 01:24:09 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] pack-bitmaps: plug memory leak, fix allocation size for recent_bitmaps Use an automatic variable for recent_bitmaps, an array of pointers. This way we don't allocate too much and don't have to free the memory at the end. The old code over-allocated because it reserved enough memory to store all of the structs it is only pointing to and never freed it. 160 64-bit pointers take up 1280 bytes, which is not too much to be placed on the stack. MAX_XOR_OFFSET is turned into a preprocessor constant to make it constant enough for use in an non-variable array declaration.
