<div style="font-family:Arial;">You're absolutely right, it should
be changed. If you have a platform where sizeof(int) !=
sizeof(size_t) then you'll have problems with that.<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;">I'll fix it on the 2.3 branch,
though we probably won't cut a release from it immediately.
It's not supported any more. We released 2.4.0 over 6 years ago
now!<br>

<div style="font-family:Arial;"> I have been checking the Cyrus

been reading this signal is sent to a proccess when it

<div style="font-family:Arial;"> access attemp (an out of the
own variable, pointer... etc, storage room). After debugging
the code with GDB and doing several checks, have seen the
issue came from the byte2search()<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> function when a piece of the
string s->substr was trying to be stored in b. Concretely
the third if in the loop :<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> for (i = 0, cur = 0; i <

<div style="font-family:Arial;"> /* no more active offsets

</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> /* if we've passed one

</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> if (cur < i) {<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> s->starts[cur] =
s->starts[i];<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> }<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> /* check that the substring

<div style="font-family:Arial;"> if (b ==
s->substr[s->offset - s->starts[i]]) {<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> The issue was caused there
because s->starts[i] in this place, was not being able to
be accesed because it was pointing to to data outside
s->starts. After searching where this array was being
initialized<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> and it's memory allocated
(which was in search_init function), I tried to allocate 10
bytes more for that pointer. After doing it, there were no
more issues. So I tried allocating just one byte more which it
seemed<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> to be enough too (at least for
the patterns I have searched for). At this moment I understood
this pointer (s->starts which was a search_state->substr
pointer inside the search_state structure) was not having<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> enough room for all the content
needed to be stored, or at least accesed when calling it. I
checked then the code of Cyrus 2.3.18 and 2.3.19 but didn't
see any kind of differences in the part of the memory<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> allocation (in search_init())
or usage (in bytesearch) for s->starts. I deciced to check
Cyrus 2.4 code and I saw it's room was being allocated the
following way :<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> s->starts =
xmalloc(s->max_start * sizeof(size_t));<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> instead of that in 2.3 was done
:<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> s->starts =
xmalloc(s->max_start * sizeof(int));<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> So I understood s->starts
should be allocated to the size of a size_t type defined
variable size, instead to the size of an integer variable n
times. After replacing it, has seen definitively all seemed to
be<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> working. So wouldn't Cyrus 2.3
sources have this allocation in search_init done with
sizeof(size_t) instead of the sizeof(int)?. I think this is
important because else, when the first character of a<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> pattern is repeated more than
one time, the pattern has a would say patlen of 8-9 bytes and
matches exist in the mailbox, that search would end up with a
proccess died due to a signal 11.<br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> <br>
</div>
<div style="font-family:Arial;"> My env is FreeBSD RELENG_9_0 OS
with a Cyrus 2.3.18_1 port. Am I wrong, shouldn't that
allocation be changed?.<br>
