X-Git-Tag: upstream/1.9.2~618
X-Git-Url: https://git.djapps.eu/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=16dd1716204773a2f99a29ecf46748fa29d5f2b9;p=pkg%2Fggml%2Fsources%2Fwhisper.cpp

fix: free ctx_copy in ggml_opt_free to plug per-training-session leak (llama/21592)

* fix: free ctx_copy in ggml_opt_free to plug per-training-session leak

ggml_opt_alloc populates opt_ctx->ctx_copy via a free+init pair every
time the allocated graph shape changes. The last ctx_copy from the
final ggml_opt_alloc call survives until ggml_opt_free is invoked,
but ggml_opt_free was only freeing ctx_static and ctx_cpu, never
ctx_copy. Each opt_ctx lifetime therefore leaks the final per-batch
context — ~900 KB for a typical GNN training session in
sindarin-pkg-tensor, surfaced via AddressSanitizer.

ctx_copy is nullptr-initialized and ggml_free() handles NULL safely,
so the new release is guard-free.

* Update ggml/src/ggml-opt.cpp
