Possible NULL pointer deferenced (src/interfaces/libpq/fe-exec.c(line 563)

Hi Mark,
please, can you take a look?

This possible bug was appeared before, see at:

The trap still persist, in HEAD see:

src/interfaces/libpq/fe-exec.c (line 563)
/* If there's enough space in the current block, no problem. */
if (nBytes <= (size_t) res->spaceLeft)
{
   space = res->curBlock->space + res->curOffset;
   res->curOffset += nBytes;
   res->spaceLeft -= nBytes;

   return space;
}

The res->curBlock pointer possibly, can be NULL here (line 563).

See at:
src/interfaces/libpq/fe-exec.c (line 585)
if (res->curBlock)

The path is res->curBlock be NULL and res->spaceLeft > nBytes.

If res->curBlock it not can be NULL, inside pqResultAlloc function, why is verified against NULL at line 585?

regards,
Ranier Vilela

No, it can't.

To get to that line, nBytes has to be > 0, which means res->spaceLeft
has to be > 0, which cannot happen while res->curBlock is NULL.
