The following program shows a few leaks in valgrind (ubuntu 12.04, alsa-lib 1.0.25, eglibc 2.15):

#include <alsa/asoundlib.h>

int main() { snd_pcm_t* pcm = 0; snd_pcm_open(&pcm, "default", SND_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK, 0); snd_pcm_close(pcm); snd_config_update_free_global(); }

Do I close pcm correctly? In file MEMORY-LEAK it is written that program should call snd_config_update_free_global() to free global configuration cache and I do so.

I'm not sure, but probably some leaks are caused by glibc.

Most of them are glibc leaks, but I found a little issue in alsa-lib, too. This commit should fix it:
