[sorry for the wrong post in cygwin-patches...]
Hi, when looking thrue cygwin code looking for function 'VirtualQuery', we can see that it is passed a structure (MEMORY_BASIC_INFORMATION). In some cases, this structure is memset'ed to 0 before the call, sometimes, not. My very own opinion about it, is that there is no need to reset the content of the structure before the call and in some places a call to memset can be avoided. Here is a list of the call to 'VirtualQuery' which uses memset and could be optimised : - cygthread.cc (terminate_thread) - fork.cc (stack_base) - exceptions.cc (interruptible) All the other calls to 'VirtualQuery' don't use memset. If you think it is useful, I can provide a patch for this in the next few days.
