Subject: Fix: poll max size should be checked during resize
X-Git-Tag: v2.1.2~21
X-Git-Url: https://git.lttng.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ca0d78492eb30f538afab0406249bbc7c2492c80;p=lttng-tools.git

Fix: poll max size should be checked during resize

This was detected using cppcheck:

[src/common/compat/compat-poll.c:204]: (error) Uninitialized variable:
new_size

So, the check was always made over an uninitialized variable on the
stack. Fortunately, worst case scenario, new_size is set to the maximum
allowed or kept untouched.
