Subject: bug#9990: valgrind warning in add_row_entry
Date: Tue, 08 Nov 2011 09:27:06 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <yxqwrbaadvp.fsf@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)


valgrind ./temacs -Q gets this warning:

==7487== Use of uninitialised value of size 8
==7487==    at 0x4140F4: update_window (dispnew.c:4212)

==7487== ---- Attach to debugger ? --- [Return/N/n/Y/y/C/c] ---- Y

The line in question is:

4212      entry = row_table[i];


(gdb) p i
$1 = 0x157
(gdb) p row_table[i]
$2 = (struct row_entry *) 0x0
(gdb) p row_table_size
$3 = 0x193

Is it possible for the contents of row_table to be uninitialized?  Is this warning a false positive?
