Subject: [PATCH] Do not try to access element when vector is empty
Trying to access tmp[0] causes a crash on Fedora when assertion on STL
are enabled.
/usr/include/c++/10/bits/stl_vector.h:1045: std::vector<_Tp, _Alloc>::reference std::vector<_Tp, _Alloc>::operator[](std::vector<_Tp, _Alloc>::size_type) [with _Tp = unsigned char; _Alloc = std::allocator<unsigned char>; std::vector<_Tp, _Alloc>::reference = unsigned char&; std::vector<_Tp, _Alloc>::size_type = long unsigned int]: Assertion '__builtin_expect(__n < this->size(), true)' failed.
This patch just passes nullptr as pointer to getSortKey() when tmp size
is 0, preventing dereferencing elements in empty vector.
I guess that &tmp[0] should be optimized as 'no real access' when
disabling assertion, but actually leads to crash when assert are
enabled.
