------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Sep 1 01:37:36 -0700 2006 ------- i.e. we read in up to 512 bytes into a 512 byte buffer from /proc/$PID/status so the string is not null terminated if >= 512 bytes are available from "status" and we pass this buffer to sscanf. Not a huge problem as the data we need is always available early in this 512 bytes for sscanf to find, so sscanf shouldn't trundle past the end of the buffer. On the other hand valgrind tells me that sscanf does just this under some optimization settings on x86_64. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
