Make sure "el" can be reuseable again. The problem was el->alloc is not cleared and may cause segfaults next time because add_exclude() thinks el->excludes (being NULL) has enough space. Just clear the entire struct to be safe. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@xxxxxxxxx> --- This was needed in the worktree config split series because the same exclude_list could be reused. But that series is changing and will not need exclude_list any more. So instead of dropping this patch, I submit it separately. It's a good fix anyway. dir.c | 4 +--- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/dir.c b/dir.c index d2a8f06..b8b4576 100644 --- a/dir.c +++ b/dir.c @@ -564,9 +564,7 @@ void clear_exclude_list(struct exclude_list *el) free(el->excludes); free(el->filebuf); - el->nr = 0; - el->excludes = NULL; - el->filebuf = NULL; + memset(el, 0, sizeof(*el)); } static void trim_trailing_spaces(char *buf) -- 2.3.0.rc1.137.g477eb31 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
