As pointed out by chipitsine in GH #1879, coverity complains
about a sizeof with char ** type where it should be char *.
This was introduced in 'MINOR: hlua: Allow argument on
lua-lod(-per-thread) directives' (
ae6b568)
Luckily this had no effect so far because on most platforms
sizeof(char **) == sizeof(char *), but this can not be safely
assumed for portability reasons.
The fix simply changes the argument to sizeof so that it refers to
'*per_thread_load[len]' instead of 'per_thread_load[len]'.
No backport needed.
/* count args excepting the first, allocate array and copy args */
for (i = 0; *(args[i + 1]) != 0; i++);
- per_thread_load[len] = calloc(i + 1, sizeof(per_thread_load[len]));
+ per_thread_load[len] = calloc(i + 1, sizeof(*per_thread_load[len]));
if (per_thread_load[len] == NULL) {
memprintf(err, "out of memory error");
return -1;
