Cygheap page boundary allocation bug.

2007-12-11 Thread Dave Korn
Hi gang, My bug turned out to be a problem in the cygheap _csbrk routine. If an allocation takes you exactly to the end of a granularity page, _csbrk calls VirtualAlloc with a dwSize of zero bytes - the adjusted amount by which the heap needs to be extended into the next page.
