Subject: [PATCH] fix leak in cloned regexes.

When a regex is cloned for a new thread, the string buffer (which holds
|
||
|
the text of the original pattern) wasn't being freed because SvLEN was
|
||
|
being set to 0.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
use threads;
|
||
|
my $r = qr/abc/;
|
||
|
threads->new( sub { 1; })->join;
|
||
|
|
||
|
In the new thread, $r is cloned but when the thread exits, the string
|
||
|
buffer holding "(?^:abc)" was leaking.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This was broken by v5.27.2-30-gdf6b4bd565.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The problem was that in the cloned SV, the buffer was copied, but the
|
||
|
SvLEN(sv) was left set at zero, which along with the SVf_FAKE, mader it
|
||
|
look like the buffer was alien and so not freed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
SvLEN was 0 in the parent thread's $r, since $r and its compile-time
|
||
|
prototype share the same string buffer (so only the original SV has
|
||
|
SvLEN > 0 - all the copies - within the same thread - have mother_re
|
||
|
pointing to the original).
|
||
|
|
||
|
When REs are cloned into another thread, mother_re isn't preserved,
|
||
|
so each RE has its own copy of the buffer.
