Hi,

I get the following race from DRD:

Conflicting store by thread 7 at 0x55fe8aa0 size 8
    by 0x5CCD8750: func() (inv_utils.C:1711)
    by 0x4C2C0C1: ??? (in /usr/lib64/valgrind/vgpreload_drd-amd64-linux.so)
    by 0x5047F04: start_thread (in /lib64/libpthread-2.14.1.so)
    by 0x5CB710C: clone (in /lib64/libc-2.14.1.so)
Address 0x55fe8aa0 is at offset 0 from 0x55fe8aa0. Allocation context:
    at 0x4C2BC9D: malloc (in 
/usr/lib64/valgrind/vgpreload_drd-amd64-linux.so)
    by 0x5CCD849F: func() (inv_utils.C:1690)
    by 0x4C2C0C1: ??? (in /usr/lib64/valgrind/vgpreload_drd-amd64-linux.so)
    by 0x5047F04: start_thread (in /lib64/libpthread-2.14.1.so)
    by 0x5CB710C: clone (in /lib64/libc-2.14.1.so)
Other segment start (thread 6)
    at 0x4C31712: pthread_spin_lock (in 
/usr/lib64/valgrind/vgpreload_drd-amd64-linux.so)
    by 0x22C031FD: hunc (bn_thread.C:43)
    by 0x4C2C0C1: ??? (in /usr/lib64/valgrind/vgpreload_drd-amd64-linux.so)
    by 0x5047F04: start_thread (in /lib64/libpthread-2.14.1.so)
    by 0x5CB710C: clone (in /lib64/libc-2.14.1.so)
Other segment end (thread 6)
    at 0x4C30EC2: pthread_spin_init (in 
/usr/lib64/valgrind/vgpreload_drd-amd64-linux.so)
    by 0x22C032AD: hunc (bn_thread.C:47)
    by 0x4C2C0C1: ??? (in /usr/lib64/valgrind/vgpreload_drd-amd64-linux.so)
    by 0x5047F04: start_thread (in /lib64/libpthread-2.14.1.so)
    by 0x5CB710C: clone (in /lib64/libc-2.14.1.so)



The function func() is in essence:

{
    int * data = malloc(100);
    for (int i = 0; i != 100; ++i) {
        data[i] = 0;         <-------  Line 1711
    }

    // Some small calculations

    free(data);
}


So I wonder how there can be a data race for writting to data. The 
memory has been just allocated and no other thread knows about it.

How can this happen?

Thanks
Christoph
