Thank you for the report! This looks like SDL_pen.c, line 312:
pen->name = (char *)SDL_calloc(1, SDL_PEN_MAX_NAME); /* Never deallocated */
Correction: Earlier I wrote that there is no SDL_PenQuit()
, which was incorrect. I have updated the text below to reflect reality.
This is memory that would only ever be deallocated during SDL_PenQuit()
, except that SDL_PenQuit()
only deallocates hint callbacks right now, not the registry of currently or previously attached pens.
While I doubt that this is or will become practically meaningful in production, it would keep tripping up memory leak scans. I will put together a PR for it.
Background: The pen subsystem tracks pens throughout the lifetime of the program, to make sure that pens that get detached and reattached retain the same and to allow the client code to keep a pointer to the pen name to display e.g. in a configuration menu. The only safe time to deallocate is thus when the program shuts down, or when the client code explicitly signals that it wants to shut down SDL, at which point it is reasonable to assume that the client won't expect SDL-managed pointers to still be valid.
One of the reported leaks was indicative of a real leak (cf. #9341). Thank you again for the report!
Thanks for the fix :)
