https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=239493 --- Comment #3 from Conrad Meyer <cem@freebsd.org> --- In fact, a similar issue was discussed on a 2017 GMP thread.[1] The problematic aspect is: (In reply to Dennis Clarke from comment #0) > int main () { > unsigned long *r, *r2; > ... > r = malloc (10000 * sizeof (unsigned long)); >... > if (r[2048] != 0 || r[2049] != 0 || r[2050] != 0 || r[2051] != 0 || > r[2052] != 0 || r[2053] != 0 || r[2054] != 0) > abort (); malloc() does not guarantee allocated memory is zero. A better test is to use memset(r, 0, ....) or calloc() in place of malloc(). The GMP thread provided this solution as well.
