[PHP-DEV] _emalloc bug? From: Walter Franzini (walter <email protected>)
Date: 07/27/01

-- php-4.0.6/Zend/zend_alloc.c (160) -------------------------------
        if (!p) {
                fprintf(stderr,"FATAL: emalloc(): Unable to allocate %ld bytes\n",
                (long) size);
#if ZEND_DEBUG && defined(HAVE_KILL) && defined(HAVE_GETPID)
                kill(getpid(), SIGSEGV);
#else
                exit(1);
#endif
                HANDLE_UNBLOCK_INTERRUPTIONS();
                return (void *)p;
        }
--------------------------------------------------------------------

If p==NULL _emalloc does not return, so checking the return value is
pointless because you can do this iff it's ok. Maybe I'missing
something :-)

A minor problem exists with size: size_t should be unsigned and the
type modifier assumes it's signed.

Ciao.
