re-ACK 1c9255c

Checked the disassembly with -O0:

It doesn't generate memsets, but the mov $0, XXX are correct:

This one is more complex, but it works out, contains the same clearing code:

For reference, from https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/language/array_initialization

All array elements that are not initialized explicitly are zero-initialized.

utACK 5d2e40c4d2394758e8026f796de89e8569f8dc86, code looks correct.

src/protocol.cpp

laanwj · 2021-05-13T14:42:02Z

src/protocol.cpp

-    memset(pchChecksum, 0, CHECKSUM_SIZE);
-}
-
 CMessageHeader::CMessageHeader(const MessageStartChars& pchMessageStartIn, const char* pszCommand, unsigned int nMessageSizeIn)


We could also change the type here to std::string or std::span instead of a loose pointer, at some point and clean up the loop (oh and rename the argument to message_type maybe instead of command, when we're at it). No need to do so in this PR though.

Crypt-iQ · 2021-05-13T14:47:33Z

Code review ACK 1c9255c

Looking at the code I noticed both pchCommand, pchMessageStart are char arrays. There is a memcpy done from MessageStartChars (unsigned char array) to pchMessageStart, and some architectures specify char as signed. May be a case for explicitly making them unsigned char arrays?

maflcko · 2021-05-13T16:03:34Z

I have a patchset to remove char, but haven't pushed it yet

laanwj · 2021-05-13T16:54:19Z

Looking at the code I noticed both pchCommand, pchMessageStart are char arrays.

Another good point. There are only very few places where bare 'char' is a good choice. But let's leave it for a future PR.
