see the red italic ,line 154:
-----------------------------
block_fifo_t *__block_FifoNew( vlc_object_t *p_obj )
{
block_fifo_t *p_fifo;

p_fifo = malloc( sizeof( vlc_object_t ) );
vlc_mutex_init( p_obj, &p_fifo->lock );
vlc_cond_init( p_obj, &p_fifo->wait );
p_fifo->i_depth = p_fifo->i_size = 0;
p_fifo->p_first = NULL;
p_fifo->pp_last = &p_fifo->p_first;

return p_fifo;
}
-----------------------------
why malloc a 'vlc_object_t ' structure ?

with regards

Good question ... This seems to be a mistake. I'll fix it.

thanks,

Might i ask how you noticed this ?
