[PATCH] regress: Fix possible memleaks

[Sharma, Jitendra]

Hi Daren,

Thanks for replying.
I filed the bug and after submitting the patch, I put it in resolved fix state, assuming that after resolved fix state, it will move to some test stage. So, please accept my apologies for not understanding the complete workflow. I will follow the steps for filing bugs as guided by you below.

I also understand that sending reminders in just two days is not good, and would accept that after submitting patches I will wait for at least a week or more. 
But what leads to my uncertainty is that recently I submitted some patches(Around 20 days ago) to Openssh-unix-dev mailing list:
1) [PATCH] Remove perm_ok argument from sshkey_load_private_type 
2) [PATCH 2/2] Remove sshkey_load_private()

And for these I didn’t get any feedback. So, I was in a guessing state as whether I am sending patches correctly or following proper protocols for sending patches. Probably it would be great if you could guide, as a Openssh contributor after sending patches for review, what should be patch submitter's next course of action.

Thanks,
Jitendra

We appreciate contributions, however this one is (a) a mem leak (b) in a test harness that (c) exits immediately, and (d) the bug report was
from 4 days ago so it's not exactly an emergency.   Also, (e) the bug
report was closed by you.

Please understand that this is no-one's full time job and sending reminders after a couple of days is counterproductive.  If you want stuff looked at please file a bug and leave it open. We do periodic sweeps and trivial things will typically be picked up within a week or
two and the bug closed when the fix is committed.   (Non-trivial
things are subject availability of sufficient time and/or interest, including that we'll have to support those things long term).
