This isn't reliable on modern 32-bit hosts. Please use ftello rather than ftell, as ftell is obsolete. You'll need to alter the module to depend on the ftello module. > + alloc = st.st_size - pos + 1; The assignment could overflow, since off_t might be wider than size_t. This must be checked for. and errno should be set to ENOMEM if overflow occurs. Also, the "+ 1" could overflow; this should be checked for too, preferably by doing + 1 in size_t rather than off_t (as signed overflow is problematic).
