From: Brandon Casey Date: Mon, 18 Aug 2008 23:09:52 GMT Subject: [PATCH] unpack-trees.c: work around run-time array initialization flaw on IRIX 6.5 Message-ID: <7e_S4wgjMk99ug7uOEQgrscrYYSl9z1jT8V-nSfW25bykfWmGi-mEA@cipher.nrlssc.navy.mil> In-Reply-To: The c99 MIPSpro Compiler version 7.4.4m on IRIX 6.5 does not properly initialize run-time initialized arrays. An array which is initialized with fewer elements than the length of the array should have the unitialized elements initialized to zero. This compiler does perform proper initialization when static initialization parameters are used. So, work around this by initializing with static elements, followed by a simple assignment. --- unpack-trees.c | 3 ++- 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/unpack-trees.c b/unpack-trees.c index cba0aca..de7cb0b 100644 --- a/unpack-trees.c +++ b/unpack-trees.c @@ -143,7 +143,8 @@ static inline int call_unpack_fn(struct cache_entry **src, struct unpack_trees_o static int unpack_index_entry(struct cache_entry *ce, struct unpack_trees_options *o) { - struct cache_entry *src[5] = { ce, }; + struct cache_entry *src[5] = { NULL, }; + src[0] = ce; o->pos++; if (ce_stage(ce)) { -- 1.6.0.13.ge1c8
