Description:
------------
There is a suspected memleak issue in ext/opcache/ZendAccelerator.c. In function accel_preload(), variable 'preload_scripts' is allocated at line 4453 through emalloc(). All paths after this allocation will execute the cleanup against this variable at 'finish' label, except for one error handling path on failure of preload_optimize() at line 4687, which may cause a memleak.

This bug is suggested by a static analysis tool, please advise.

Hello,
Can you provide a proper .php test case?

Sorry, currently I have no PoC for this bug.
The memleak is mainly analyzed theoretically.

The consequences of memory leak is that it reduces the performance of the computer by reducing the amount of available memory. Eventually, in the worst case, too much of the available memory may become allocated and all or part of the system or device stops working correctly, the application fails, or the system slows down vastly .

I don't think this qualifies as a bug: the failure path of preload_optimize will call zend_accel_error_noreturn and that function stops execution of the php process, that's why there is no cleanup handling.

Closing as invalid as per my previous comment.
