[RFC PATCH 07/15] strbuf.c: placate -fanalyzer in strbuf_grow()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Change the strbuf_grow() function so that GCC v12's -fanalyze doesn't
yell at us about sb->buf[0] dereferencing NULL, this also makes this
code easier to follow.

This BUG() should be unreachable since the state of our "sb->buf" and
"sb->alloc" goes hand-in-hand, but -fanalyzer isn't smart enough to
know that, and adding the BUG() also makes it clearer to human readers
that that's what happens here.
