I ran into a similar problem in test_denc that seems to be caused by underestimating the needed length of the appender: 39 void test_denc(T v) { 40 // estimate 41 size_t s = 0; 42 denc(v, s); 43 ASSERT_NE(s, 0u); 44 45 // encode 46 bufferlist bl; 47 { 48 auto a = bl.get_contiguous_appender(sizeof(T) * 3); 49 denc(v, a); 50 } This fails (the way you've described) pretty reliably whenever the overhead of a structure being described is less than three times the actual encoded length of the structure. If I change the sizeof(T) * 3 above to s, it works perfectly. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
