remove redundant memset() call

От

Hi,
I was looking at combo_init in contrib/pgcrypto/px.c .

There is a memset() call following palloc0() - the call is redundant.

Please see the patch for the proposed change.

Thanks

Uh, the memset() is ks length but the memcpy() is klen, and the above
test allows ks to be larger than klen.

Hi,
the memory has been zero'ed out by palloc0().

memcpy is not relevant w.r.t. resetting memory.

Cheers

Yeah, it looks like this was missed in ca7f8e2.

Agreed, it looks like I missed that one, I can't see any reason to keep it.  Do
you want me to take care of it Bruce, and clean up after myself, or are you
already on it?
