Submitted: 2012-02-14 18:14 UTC Modified: 2012-03-11 09:20 UTC

Description:
------------
$callback = function() {};
readline_callback_handler_install('***', $callback);

Leaks:

***[Tue Feb 14 19:01:11 2012]  Script:  'reproduceCode3_memoryLeak.php'
/home/nikic/dev/php-src/ext/readline/readline.c(579) :  Freeing 0xB78618F4 (20 
bytes), script=reproduceCode3_memoryLeak.php
=== Total 1 memory leaks detected ===

Reason is incorrect copying of a zval in 
http://lxr.php.net/opengrok/xref/PHP_TRUNK/ext/readline/readline.c#579.

I was able to fix it using this simple patch:


diff --git a/ext/readline/readline.c b/ext/readline/readline.c
index 22521e6..c9389fc 100644
