As far as I know, there are no issues with vec_sort_with_function. It’s been 
unchanged for many years. We use it in lots of places, and it does not give 
trouble.

Unless someone feeds it a dangling vector reference, or writes a broken element 
comparison function.

If after taking a good hard look at your own code, you still believe there’s an 
issue: please see

Thanks... Dave

P.S. vpp-18.10 is no longer supported. Please consider switching to vpp-19.08.

Subject: [vpp-dev] Crash in qsort

Hi,

  I am using the API vec_sort_with_function to sort a vector and I am noticing 
that it crashes. This API uses qsort function to sort the vector. Are there any 
knows issues with the implementation of qsort? I did see a couple of messages 
in this list discussing potential buffer overflow issues with this function. 
Can someone please educate me about other options I can use for sorting the 
vector (other than writing my own function?)

  We are using v18.10 version of Fd.Io.

Thanks
Krishna
