I did have a try to put malloc in place of calloc and did see basically almost all Piglit tests starting to fail on this one. There were handful of tests which still worked but also saw many different places for crashes thus though at first suggest just taking the memset out. :) /Juha-Pekka _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
