This was generally good to get done but also needed to be able to run mariabackup test under asan. Things freed: - Allocated variables (mysql_tmpdir_list, opt_passwd etc) - InnoDB variables - Results from SQL queries (A lot of sql queries did not free their result) - Allocated sys_vars - Server variables (mysql_server_end()) - Memory allocated by plugins (encryption) - Free variables allocated by my_default. (Old code had a bug that caused these to not be freed) Other things: - Moved freeing of mysql_tmpdir_list to main, as the old code did not free the last mysqltmp_dir allocation. Now we also initialize the variable only once. - Fixed a serious, potentially 'crashing at end' bug where we called free_defaults() with wrong pointers. - Fixed a bug related to update_malloc_size() where we did not take into account the it was not changed. - Fixed a bug in Sys_var_charptr_base where we did not allocate default values. This could lead to trying to free not allocated values in xtrabackup. - Added sf_have_memory_leak() to be able to easily check if there was a memory leak when using safemalloc() - sf_report_leaked_memory() now returns 1 if a memory leak was found.

MariaDB: The innovative open source database
MariaDB was designed as a drop-in replacement of MySQL(R) with more features, new storage engines, fewer bugs, and better performance.
MariaDB is brought to you by the MariaDB Foundation and the MariaDB Corporation. Please read the CREDITS file for details about the MariaDB Foundation, and who is developing MariaDB.
MariaDB is developed by many of the original developers of MySQL who now work for the MariaDB Corporation, the MariaDB Foundation and by many people in the community.
MySQL, which is the base of MariaDB, is a product and trademark of Oracle Corporation, Inc. For a list of developers and other contributors, see the Credits appendix. You can also run 'SHOW authors' to get a list of active contributors.
