Hi, thanks for taking a look. I hadn't actually delved in too deeply yet. On 03/01/16 14:41, Alexander Fougner wrote: > All zero-sized allocations are false positives, except the > btrfs-image.c.

Well..I stepped into metadump_init() and num_pthreads is definitely 0; setting it to 1 before continuing starts & coordinates with a new thread, as expected. What the analyser complains about, and what I also didn't know until just now because I stopped remembering C standard details shortly after approx. BSD 4.2 ;-) is the second half of the following bit from calloc(1): If nmemb or size is 0, then calloc() returns either NULL, or a unique pointer value that can later be successfully passed to free() So this works implicitly and is OK since it still checks for NULL and num_pthreads==0 later on. Well..good thing we talked about it. :-) cheers Holger -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
