I have discovered one problem since the change, but it may have been a bug all along.
In tcp_graph.c, it was referencing the tap (struct tcpheader) after the tap had run. The struct is allocated in packet-tcp.c using ep_alloc(), but now it wasn't valid to access that memory (immediately after tap_tcpip_packet() had returned). gdb reported that it wasn't valid to read that memory address anymore - is this a result of the change to emem.c? The fix (which I think I'm happy with) was to take a deep copy of the struct inside the tap function, i.e. Index: ui/gtk/tcp_graph.c =================================================================== --- ui/gtk/tcp_graph.c (revision 45446) +++ ui/gtk/tcp_graph.c (working copy) @@ -1885,7 +1885,10 @@ /* Add address if unique and have space for it */ if (is_unique && (th->num_hdrs < MAX_SUPPORTED_TCP_HEADERS)) { - th->tcphdrs[th->num_hdrs++] = header; + /* Need to take a deep copy of the tap struct, it may not be valid + to read after this function returns? */ + th->tcphdrs[th->num_hdrs] = g_malloc(sizeof(struct tcpheader)); + *(th->tcphdrs[th->num_hdrs++]) = *header; } On Wed, Oct 10, 2012 at 8:25 AM, <bugzilla-dae...@wireshark.org> wrote: > https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7814 > > Jakub Zawadzki <darkjames...@darkjames.pl> changed: > > What |Removed |Added > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > CC| |darkjames...@darkjames.pl > > --- Comment #13 from Jakub Zawadzki <darkjames...@darkjames.pl> > 2012-10-10 05:25:13 PDT --- > Should be fixed in r45445 > > -- > Configure bugmail: > https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email > ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- > You are watching all bug changes. > ___________________________________________________________________________ > Sent via: Wireshark-bugs mailing list <wireshark-b...@wireshark.org> > Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-bugs > Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-bugs > mailto:wireshark-bugs-requ...@wireshark.org > ?subject=unsubscribe >
