erec_print() unconditionally dereferences erec->locations->indesc, so
make sure it is valid when either creating an erec or adding a location.

I guess your're trigger a bug where erec is indesc is NULL, thing is
that indesc should be always set on. Is there a reproducer for this bug?

Yes, exactly. I hit it when trying to clean up the netdev family reject
support, while just "hacking around". You can trigger it with the
following change:

and this ruleset:

I'm attaching fix.

Looks like call to stmt_binary_error() parameters are not in the right
order, &ctx->pctx.protocol[PROTO_BASE_LL_HDR] has indesc.

Probably add a bugtrap to erec to check that indesc is always set on
accordingly instead?

New patch fix, just do not use ctx->pctx.protocol[PROTO_BASE_LL_HDR]
since it's an internal generated dependency, it is not visible from
the rule, so stmt_binary_error() cannot really help with the error
printing.

Thanks for addressing the root problem!

> accordingly instead?

Is it better than just sanitizing input to error functions? After all we
just want to make sure users see the error message, right? Catching
the programming mistake (wrong args passed to __stmt_binary_error())
IMHO is useful only if we can compile-time assert it. Otherwise we risk
hiding error info from user.

Cheers, Phil

I see. I don't see a way to catch this at compile time.

Push out your patch and I'll push mine too for correctness.

Hm, one second: Probably set internal_indesc for autogenerated
dependencies?

Either way, it's just changing where internal_indesc is set.

Probably not worth spending more cycles on this issue.
