Memory Concerns

Directory Server makes a copy of the oid string.

The contents of the bvp parameter are consumed by this function. Because of this, the caller should not free the bvp->bv_val pointer once a successful call to this function has been made.

The LDAPControl pointer that is returned in ctrlp should be freed by calling ldap_control_free(3LDAP), which is an LDAP API function.
