Zero-length allocation with posix_memalign()

I recently submitted a patch to the vlc developers that prevents a crash on FreeBSD 8.0 by not calling posix_memalign() with a size argument of zero. A simplified test case would be: #include int main(int argc, char **argv) { void *ptr; posix_memalign(&ptr, 16, 0); return

Re: carriage return with stdout and stderr

thanks. i remembered fprintf being buffered, but i always thought \r would also empty the buffer. now that explains everything. ;-) alex Jilles Tjoelker schrieb am 2009-07-05: > On Sun, Jul 05, 2009 at 01:42:01PM +0200, Alexander Best wrote: > > i'm running something similar to this pseudo-code i

carriage return with stdout and stderr

i'm running something similar to this pseudo-code in an app of mine: for (i=0 ) fprintf(stdout,"TEXT %d\r", int); what's really strange is that if i print to stdout the output isn't very clean. the cursor jumps randomly within the output (being 1 line). if i print to stderr however the ou

'No buffer space available' messages from ral0 device

After I had 'wget' running for a while ral device became irresponsive and kept printing those messages: Jul 5 00:30:45 eagle dhcpcd[22608]: ral0: timed out Jul 5 00:30:45 eagle dhcpcd[22608]: ral0: lease expired 48949 seconds ago Jul 5 00:30:45 eagle dhcpcd[22608]: ral0: writev: No buffer spac

Re: mmap/munmap with zero length

so mmap differs from the POSIX recommendation right. the malloc.conf option seems more like a workaround/hack. imo it's confusing to have mmap und munmap deal differently with len=0. being able to succesfully alocate memory which cannot be removed doesn't seem logical to me. alex Nate Eldredge sc
