(The compiler cannot see through the syscall, so optimization was not affected by the unspecified value). --- diff --git a/src/time/__map_file.c b/src/time/__map_file.c index d06a5814..b91eb8ed 100644 --- a/src/time/__map_file.c +++ b/src/time/__map_file.c @@ -11,9 +11,10 @@ const char unsigned *__map_file(const char *pathname, size_t *size) const unsigned char *map = MAP_FAILED; int fd = __sys_open(pathname, O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC|O_NONBLOCK); if (fd < 0) return 0; - if (!__syscall(SYS_fstat, fd, &st)) + if (!__syscall(SYS_fstat, fd, &st)) { map = __mmap(0, st.st_size, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); + *size = st.st_size; + } __syscall(SYS_close, fd); - *size = st.st_size; return map == MAP_FAILED ? 0 : map; }
