RE: Memory leaks are observed for libgnutls in multi-thread mode

[tangtong]

Hi,Nikos
I have rebuilt the lib with the latest daily snap shot and the GIT snapshot commited by you, the memory leak and core issue have been resolved.

One more question: in your commit comments:
"3. In TLS 1.2 when a certificate request is sent, support is not complete. In that case abort the handshake. By checking
TLS 1.2 it seems that the algorithms to be used for the signature in the certificate verify message are negotiated not at
the client/server hello messages but rather selected by the server at the certificate request. This might not look as bad, but since in this message we have to sign all previous handshake messages, it forces us to keep all the handshake messages into a buffer until this point... I don't know who proposed this change to the TLS WG, but it seems it wasn't really thought of."

If client certificate is not needed, the current implemenation can support TLS1.2, right?

Regards
Tony

Hi,Nikos
I have reproduced the core dump with the server/client in the attach. If not using the memory-leak patch, the core will not happen.

Hi,Nikos
 
The server is implemented by myself with gnutls2.9.4 and your patch. To make investigation easy, I will build a simplified server based on gnutls demo server codes and let you know the results later.
