VncJobQueue's buffer is intended to be used for as the output buffer for all operations in this queue, but unfortunatly.
vnc_async_encoding_start() is in charge of setting this buffer as the current output buffer, but vnc_async_encoding_end() was not writting the changes back to VncJobQueue, resulting in a big and ugly memleak. Signed-off-by: Corentin Chary <corenti...@iksaif.net> --- I believe this is a (slightly) better patch than Bruce's one, because it reduce memory allocations by using always the same buffer. ui/vnc-jobs-async.c | 2 ++ 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/ui/vnc-jobs-async.c b/ui/vnc-jobs-async.c index 1d4c5e7..f596247 100644 --- a/ui/vnc-jobs-async.c +++ b/ui/vnc-jobs-async.c @@ -186,6 +186,8 @@ static void vnc_async_encoding_end(VncState *orig, VncState *local) orig->hextile = local->hextile; orig->zrle = local->zrle; orig->lossy_rect = local->lossy_rect; + + queue->buffer = local->output; } static int vnc_worker_thread_loop(VncJobQueue *queue) -- 1.7.4
