Subject: [PATCH] fix uninitialized variable in waitid(2)
Date: Thu, 2 Dec 2004 17:39:51 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041202223951.GA22488@tsunami.ccur.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20041202175418.GA9716@tsunami.ccur.com>
Specify an initial value signal_struct's field stop_state
whenever a signal_struct variable is created.
Bug was discovered through the occasional failure of
telnet(1) to connect.
