Hi!

ASAN shows that the list of spill pages is not freed after transaction:

Thanks for the report. Fixed now in mdb.master and mdb.RE/0.9

SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: 20971376 byte(s) leaked in 1 allocation(s).

Reproducible on LMDB 0.9.24 with the following code (anything doing long write transaction will trigger this): #include "lmdb.h"

int main(int argc,char * argv[]) { int rc; MDB_env *env; MDB_dbi dbi; MDB_val key, data; MDB_txn *txn; int kval; char sval[1024] = {0}; // fine to fill with zeroes

rc = mdb_env_create(&env);
rc = mdb_env_set_mapsize(env, 10ULL * 1024 * 1024 * 1024); // 10 GiB
rc = mdb_env_open(env, "./testdb", 0, 0664);
rc = mdb_txn_begin(env, NULL, 0, &txn);
rc = mdb_dbi_open(txn, NULL, 0, &dbi);

key.mv_size = sizeof(int);
key.mv_data = &kval;
data.mv_size = sizeof(sval);
data.mv_data = sval;

for (kval = 0; kval < 100'000'000; ++kval) {
    rc = mdb_put(txn, dbi, &key, &data, 0);
}
rc = mdb_txn_commit(txn);

mdb_dbi_close(env, dbi);
mdb_env_close(env);
return 0;

}

...

From my point of view the leak looks benign (=does not lead to

database corruption or such), but I didn't dive deep enough in LMDB internals to be completely certain about that.
