malloc(0) being called by node.js c-ares wrapper #392
Description
Here is an assert attached in the dependent code of c-ares for node.js. The assert is looking for a malloc(0) call, a wrapper function in c-ares wrapper file is responsible for the malloc(0) calls. I have provided the trace of the assert call for more information (what file and function is the culprit). Are there any suggestions for what could be done?
Assertion failed: size, file: ../deps/cares/src/ares_library_init.c, line: 54, function: default_malloc
