Subject: [PATCH] journal: fix against (theoretical) undefined behavior
9fc0f6
9fc0f6
While all the libc implementations I know return NULL when memchr's size
9fc0f6
parameter is 0, without accessing any memory, passing NULL to memchr is
9fc0f6
still invalid:
9fc0f6
9fc0f6
C11 7.24.1p2: Where an argument declared as "size_t n" specifies the length
9fc0f6
of the array for a function, n can have the value zero on a call to that
9fc0f6
function. Unless explicitly stated otherwise in the description of a
9fc0f6
particular function in this subclause, pointer arguments on such a call
9fc0f6
shall still have valid values, as described in 7.1.4. On such a call, a
9fc0f6
function that locates a character finds no occurrence, a function that
9fc0f6
compares two character sequences returns zero, and a function that copies
9fc0f6
characters copies zero characters.
