I think this is the same issue that was reported here for timer_create
(which also has a helper thread):
libc timer_create with option SIGEV_THREAD system call having memory
leaks after timer_delete system call
<https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29705>
I don't think there is a good way to fix this. It's not an unbounded
leak, so it does not impact the application while it runs.
Thanks,
Florian
