Re: [PATCH] SEGV fixed in dvbpsi_decoder_psi_section_add

Dear Jean-Paul,
i don't have a test file at the moment, tested it yesterday with live data from some major TV Channels in Germany. Unfortunately I am not in the office today, so i can't provide a capture at the moment. Before the patch i got many valgrind errors and after 0,5 - 3 minutes i got an SEGV. Afterwards it worked fine, without any valgrind errors. In my testing setup its still running since yesterday.

regards,
 Michael

Michael,

The patch looks good. Do you have a test file for me to try?

In this case p points to the head of the list ( p =
p_decoder->p_sections), so p = p_section should do the trick.
However I wonder if an compiler optimization causes the crash to happen.
