Re: Linux 2.4.30-rc2

[Willy Tarreau]

Marcelo,

here's a patch from Dave Jones, which is already in 2.6 and which I've
used in my local tree for 6 months now. It removes a useless NULL check
in zlib_inflateInit2_(), since 'z' is already dereferenced one line
before the test. Can in go in 2.4.30 please ?

Thanks,
Willy
