Обсуждение: psql memory leaks

I noticed that \bind is leaking memory for each option.

=# SELECT $1, $2, $3 \ bind 1 2 3 \g

The leaked memory blocks are comming from
psql_scan_slash_option(). The attached small patch resolves that
issue.  I looked through the function's call sites, but I didn't find
the same mistake.

regards.

Indeed.  I was reviewing the whole and there could be a point in
resetting bind_nparams at the end of SendQuery() to keep a correct
track of what's saved in the pset data for the bind parameters, but
not doing so is not a big deal either because we'd just reset it once
the full allocation of the parameters is done and bind_flag is all
about that.  The code paths leading to the free seem correct, seen
from here.
