Bug in iofactory.c

C SDK

The routine “options_from_info” does not preserve the “cookie” field when a version 0 “struct lcb_create_io_ops_st” is passed to lcb_create_io_ops().

I began experiencing segmentation faults when I began using libcouchbase 2.1.0 that were not present when I used version 2.0.7. I tracked the problem to the following routine, which was added in commit 21e01538bda64048964dbfb7a8b0191be5c44441.

This routine:
static void options_from_info(struct lcb_create_io_ops_st *opts,
const plugin_info *info)
{
if (info->create) {
opts->version = 2;
opts->v.v2.create = info->create;
return;
}

opts->version = 1;
opts->v.v1.sofile = info->soname;
opts->v.v1.symbol = info->symbol;

}

does not preserve the cookie, causing a subsequent segmentation fault.

For testing purposes, I replaced it with the following:

static void options_from_info(struct lcb_create_io_ops_st *opts,
const plugin_info *info)
{
void *cookie;

if (info->create) {
    opts->version = 2;
    opts->v.v2.create = info->create;
    return;
}

if (opts->version == 0) {
  cookie = opts->v.v0.cookie;
  opts->v.v1.cookie = cookie;
}

opts->version = 1;
opts->v.v1.sofile = info->soname;
opts->v.v1.symbol = info->symbol;

}

which fixed my issue.

Thank you. The issue has been fixed here: http://review.couchbase.org/28548

Will be released with libcouchbase 2.1.2 on 2013-08-27
