This resolves various memory leaks in the
pkg_editor
library. The ELF library requires the user to ensure that a buffer assigned tod_buf
in theElf_Data
struct is alive at the timeelf_update()
is called. This was previously achieved by allocating buffers and not freeing them at all, which leaks the allocated memory. To resolve the memory leaks, these commits either introduce statically allocated buffers, or track the dynamically allocated buffers and free them when closing the ELF file.(Since I could not find detailed man pages for elfutils, I linked to the OpenBSD man pages above which are strictly for the OpenBSD implementation of libelf.)
This is a prerequisite of #118
