--- Comment #6 from Alejandro Colomar <colomar.6.4.3 at gmail dot com> --- timerfd_create() might not be important if the timer is not correctly deleted. pthread_mutex_init() is another one that is quite more important, as leaking such a thing in a multithreaded program will be a pain to debug for sure. This attribute could help detect that.
