This was flagged by undefined behaviour sanitizer: memset should not be called with NULL first argument. (memset requires first argument to be pointer to a memory object, so passing NULL may result in an undefined behaviour including among other things optimizer potentially removing code paths depending on stat->xstat_count being NULL.)
Sanitizer message: lib/graph/graph_stats.c:473:2: runtime error: null pointer passed as argument 1, which is declared to never be null Add a check that stat->xstat_cntrs is not zero before the call, since stat->xstat_count can only be NULL when stat->xstat_cntrs is zero. Fixes: 070db97e017 ("graph: support node xstats") Signed-off-by: Marat Khalili <marat.khal...@huawei.com> --- Thanks to Jerin Jacob and David Marchand for the reviews. v3: * Addressing comments from David Marchand change to check the length instead of the pointer, fix formatting. * Drop the other half of the two-patch set since the problem it was addressing was already getting fixed elsewhere. v2: Following the suggestions from Jerin Jacob changed the Subject and added Fixes line. lib/graph/graph_stats.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/lib/graph/graph_stats.c b/lib/graph/graph_stats.c index bb202577e9..9e330c8e61 100644 --- a/lib/graph/graph_stats.c +++ b/lib/graph/graph_stats.c @@ -470,7 +470,8 @@ cluster_node_arregate_stats(struct cluster_node *cluster, bool dispatch) uint64_t *xstat; uint8_t i; - memset(stat->xstat_count, 0, sizeof(uint64_t) * stat->xstat_cntrs); + if (stat->xstat_cntrs != 0) + memset(stat->xstat_count, 0, sizeof(uint64_t) * stat->xstat_cntrs); for (count = 0; count < cluster->nb_nodes; count++) { node = cluster->nodes[count]; -- 2.43.0
