            Bug ID: 470520
           Summary: Multiple realloc zero errors crash in MC_(eq_Error)
    Classification: Developer tools
           Product: valgrind
           Version: 3.21.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: memcheck
          Assignee: jsew...@acm.org
          Reporter: m...@klomp.org
  Target Milestone: ---

MC_(eq_Error) doesn't handle Err_ReallocSizeZero which causes a crash when
detecting multiple realloc zero errors in the same place.

Take the following program:

$ cat /tmp/t.c 
#include <stdlib.h>

int
main ()
{
  char *p = malloc (1024);
  for (int i = 3; i >= 0; i--)
    for (int j = 0; j <= 3; j++)
      {
        char *q = realloc (p, i * j * 512);
        p = q;
      }

  free (p);
}
$ gcc -g -o t t.c
$ valgrind ./t

Note: see also the FAQ in the source distribution.
It contains workarounds to several common problems.
In particular, if Valgrind aborted or crashed after
identifying problems in your program, there's a good chance
that fixing those problems will prevent Valgrind aborting or
crashing, especially if it happened in m_mallocfree.c.

If that doesn't help, please report this bug to: www.valgrind.org

In the bug report, send all the above text, the valgrind
version, and what OS and version you are using.  Thanks.
