Hi!
I have detected the rspSelect()/ext_select() memory leak problem for FreeBSD.
It is not a problem of ext_select(), the FreeBSD pthread implementation is a
bit different. It allocates a memory block for pthread_mutexattr_t, which
Linux does not. This structure is not freed.
The error is in the Socket-API. Go to synchronizable.cc,
Synchronizable::Synchronizable() and replace
pthread_mutex_init(&Mutex,&mutexattr);
setName(name);
by
pthread_mutex_init(&Mutex,&mutexattr);
pthread_mutexattr_destroy(&mutexattr);
setName(name);
Now, the problem is gone.
Best regards
