Subject: [PATCH 1/2] lib/graph: avoid memset(NULL, 0, 0)
Date: Tue, 17 Jun 2025 11:52:07 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250617105209.50526-1-marat.khalili@huawei.com> (raw)

This was flagged by undefined behaviour sanitizer: memset should not be
called with NULL first argument. (memset requires first argument to be
pointer to a memory object, so passing NULL may result in an undefined
behaviour including among other things optimizer potentially removing
code paths depending on stat->xstat_count being NULL.)

Sanitizer message:

    lib/graph/graph_stats.c:473:2: runtime error: null pointer passed as
    argument 1, which is declared to never be null

To fix the issue add a check that stat->xstat_count is not NULL before
the call.
