variable allocated in lower scope and passed to higher scope

[tejas-techstack]

If a variable is allocated in a lower scope and is returned to a higher scope, then the memory will need to be freed in the higher scope. eg:

int * myFunc(){
  int *x = malloc(sizeof(int));
  *x = 15;
  return x;
}

int main(){
  int *valOfx = myFunc();
  printf("%d\n", x);
  // Free is to be injected here and valOfx is to be freed.
  return 0;
}

this requires keeping track of the variable through the scopes. your job is to make sure that the memory is freed correctly in the higher scope

you have 1 and a half hour, if you are not able to finish within that time but have progress i will see and extend the time

[Nightwing000]

Thanks

Hi so do you need it to free properly only in main or for any function of higher scope?

[Nightwing000]

also if just main is acceptable please tell how many points

[Nightwing000]

@tejas-techstack can you please tell so I can start implementing

[tejas-techstack]

hey im so sorry i was working on something else

[tejas-techstack]

yea so i will be able to give you only 200 points if you can successfully implement it for main alone the max bounty is extremely hard because of multiple different higher scopes.

[Nightwing000]

ah no problem thank you so much

[tejas-techstack]

are you going to be working on it?

[Nightwing000]

yeah lemme see if I can implement the entire thing(not just main)

@Nightwing000 were you able to run the program on windows, without libclang-dev?

[Nightwing000]

I downloaded llvm and it worked but I'm having issues with the check_alloc_term function my logic goes like finding only variables that contain main but yea it doesn't give the output still trying

[Nightwing000]

please let me know if you can see my pull request @tejas-techstack
