Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] [Wireshark-commits] rev 50063: /trunk/ /trunk/epan/dissector
Partly backed out in r50073. Wmem is stricter about letting you
allocate ephemeral memory when there isn't actually a packet being
dissected, because then we have no guarantee how long that memory will
stick around. The SNMP dissector (and others backed out in the same
revision) use scoped memory in UAT callbacks that can be called
entirely unrelated to packet/file dissection state, which was causing
the assertion you saw.
These dissectors should really be fixed not to use scoped memory in
this way, which may end up being a non-trivial change, so for now the
old way is enough to make SNMP work again.
