I'm wondering if it would also be OK to initialize all of the members in ctor without memset and to leave memset only in the reset. I'm asking this since we really want to integrate this: 525063

Bug 1411626 - don't use memset on mozilla::gl::GLContextSymbols since it's not a trivial type.

Not like this.

Which version of gcc is this from?
Flags: needinfo?(sledru)
This warning is spurious here, since we're within the lifetime of the object. (Both in the ctor or in a member function)
Assignee: bpostelnicu → jgilbert
I'm inferring that this is from GCC8-dev, which I don't trivially have available to test with.
I'm going to discourage you from trying to fix warnings from pre-release compilers, but I'm fine with at least this change.

Bug 1411626 - Make GLContextSymbols a pure aggregate POD. -

Aren't we doing here a byte copy of an rvalue object o mSymbols?
Why don't we keet the Zero function and call it here?
Since we've deleted the ctor this is a trivial class hence we will no longer have the issue with memset and gcc8.

Same here as above.

The optimizer should pick up on this, and this isn't perf-sensitive anyway.
