Hi Richard,
If list of available buffers (*db->lookaside.pFree*) is NULL and
it is assigned
to pBuf and if you access pBuf->pNext it will crash. read my comments in
below code
snippet.
There is good chance that sqlite may end up with empty
lookaside pool(*db->lookaside.pFree*) list when there were many prepare
statements are executed.
please read my comments in code:
if( db->lookaside.bEnabled ){
if( n>db->lookaside.sz ){
db->lookaside.anStat[1]++;
}
* //pBuf assigned with list of available buffers *
* else if( (pBuf = db->lookaside.pFree)==0 ){*
db->lookaside.anStat[2]++;
}else{
* //it will crash here and there is no check for NULL here*
* db->lookaside.pFree = pBuf->pNext;*
db->lookaside.nOut++;
db->lookaside.anStat[0]++;
if( db->lookaside.nOut>db->lookaside.mxOut ){
db->lookaside.mxOut = db->lookaside.nOut;
}
return (void*)pBuf;
Regards,
Ashok
