Use the debugger to look at the values of the relevant variables, especially 
dataSize.
Since the result is a crash instead of an exception, the NSRange you create is 
valid; so I assume it’s just larger than your buffer so the copy runs off the 
end into unmapped address space.

Also, what exactly is the type of ‘bytes’? If it’s a pointer to a malloced 
buffer, you shouldn’t be passing its address, rather its value, otherwise 
you’re going to copy into the stack and blow up.
