Hello crew,
whilst working with a branch (not the trunk) I came upon an odd bug.
During server initialization in the function lebf_initialize() the
function creates a dummy request and encodes it over and over again,
once for each request type in order to discover the max size. This
dummy request is never zero'd between iterations. I found that in some
instances this caused a seg fault - but changing almost anything might
undo it. Same code compiled/linked a different way may or may not fail.
Simply putting a memset() in the loop fixes it, as far as I can tell.
Anyone know why we don't zero the request, or object to adding that?
Seems to have no performance impact since it is in initialization.
Walt
