pchickey opened PR #1525 from pch/wiggle_null_ptr
to master
:
Linear memory location 0 is valid to access, but many toolchains we care about use it for null pointers. If a pointer to 0 is passed to wiggle, we should reject it with a new
GuestError::NullPtr
error, rather than permit aGuestPtr
to dereference it.One nice thing about this patch is that, if you don't apply the changes to the test crate, the proptests will quickly find that all test cases they generate using linear memory location 0 will fail. I added filters to the two memory location generator functions to ensure they don't produce location 0 anymore.
