Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/2] object-file API: fix obscure unpack_loose_header() return
Date: Thu, 19 May 2022 22:09:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <RFC-patch-1.2-297bea05118-20220519T195055Z-avarab@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <RFC-cover-0.2-00000000000-20220519T195055Z-avarab@gmail.com>
Fix an obscure unpack_loose_header() return value. In my
5848fb11acd (object-file.c: return ULHR_TOO_LONG on "header too long",
2021-10-01) this API learned to return ULHR_TOO_LONG, but should not
have done so in the case of parsing a long header where the
terminating \0 cannot be found. We should return a ULHR_BAD in that
case.
