/*
 * livepatch-shadow-fix1.c - Shadow variables, livepatch demo
 *
 * Purpose
 * -------
 *
 * Fixes the memory leak introduced in livepatch-shadow-mod through the
 * use of a shadow variable.  This fix demonstrates the "extending" of
 * short-lived data structures by patching its allocation and release
 * functions.
 *
 *
 * Usage
 * -----
 *
 * This module is not intended to be standalone.  See the "Usage"
 * section of livepatch-shadow-mod.c.
