Subject: [PATCH 1/2] stop calling UNLEAK() before die()
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2020 11:55:00 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200813155500.GA897132@coredump.intra.peff.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200813155426.GA896769@coredump.intra.peff.net>

The point of UNLEAK() is to make a reference to a variable that is about
to go out of scope so that leak-checkers will consider it to be
not-leaked. Doing so right before die() is therefore pointless; even
though we are about to exit the program, the variable will still be on
the stack and accessible to leak-checkers.

These annotations aren't really hurting anything, but they clutter the
code and set a bad example of how to use UNLEAK().
