- Reply-to: sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org
Valgrind reports definitely lost memory leak when I am invoking
openpty(). This function is defined in /usr/lib/libutil.a belonging libc6-dev. I
also download source eglibc-2.10.1, but it doesn't help to fix my problem.
My program is:
#include <unistd.h>
#include <glib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <utmp.h>
#include <pty.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int master, slave;
if (openpty(&master, &slave, NULL, NULL, NULL) < 0)
return -1;
close(master);
close(slave);
return 0;
}
$ valgrind --leak-check=full ./test
