Description

« Hide

Jeff Robbins reported a potential memory leak in mod_python as a result of PyThreadState_Clear() not being called prior to PyThreadState_Delete. See:

http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-python-dev/200610.mbox/%3c3308644A-9EE5-48BA-845F-EF3F43BB68FF@dscpl.com.au%3e

Problem looks to be valid, but as per followup:

http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-python-dev/200610.mbox/%3cA62494E5-D8FE-458B-9700-EEEC1EB11FE8@dscpl.com.au%3e

the location of the PyThreadState_Clear() call would need to be moved to before the lock is released.
