Hi all,
It seems there's a small bug in libevent-trunk (1.5?, 2.0?) when passing a 'wrong' event_config to event_base_new_with_config. By 'wrong' I mean a configuration that doesn't make sense, like avoiding epoll and requiring edge-triggered behavior on linux. I triggered it with the following sequence (pseudo-code): config = event_config_new(); event_config_avoid_method(config, "epoll"); event_config_require_features(config, EV_FEATURE_ET); base = event_base_new_with_config(config); --> Segmentation fault The following one liner seems to fix it (tested on linux only): --- event.c 2008-09-26 14:41:13.000000000 +0200 +++ event.c.new 2008-09-26 14:41:21.000000000 +0200 @@ -343,7 +343,7 @@ event_debug(("%s: %d events were still set in base", __func__, n_deleted)); - if (base->evsel->dealloc != NULL) + if (base->evsel && base->evsel->dealloc != NULL) base->evsel->dealloc(base, base->evbase); for (i = 0; i < base->nactivequeues; ++i) hope it helps malek _______________________________________________ Libevent-users mailing list Libevent-users@monkey.org http://monkeymail.org/mailman/listinfo/libevent-users
