In OPAL's keyval parser in
add_to_env_str
, for the first variable a buffer of size 1024 was allocated, regardless of the space needed. For any additional variables, the size might have been doubled at best, even if more space was required. This PR makes sure the allocated buffer is sufficiently large to store the value.See #8117
Note: the issue described in #8117 does not seem to occur on
master
. I will backport this to 4.0.x (where it occurs) and 4.1.x (not tested yet) but the same code exists in PMIX and PRRTE so it should be picked up there as well.Signed-off-by: Joseph Schuchart schuchart@icl.utk.edu
